Their friendship with James and Lydia Robinson continues to grow, especially when James enlists their aid in a charity project. This friendship becomes somewhat strained when the Saskias have to reveal their secret to the Robinsons. But James forgives them somewhat when he gets a knighthood after their help with his affairs. Saskia celebrates a birthday, with an amazing birthday outing that far exceeds the expectations of all her friends - and herself. But this stands her in good stead when the other Saskia's school end of term production is at risk of failure. Both Saskias try to help wherever they can, several people being rather happier after their assistance. Their trip to Florida sees them protect many people - but at great personal cost to themselves.

Sherlock Holmes and the Folk Tale Mysteries - Volume 2
￥58.76
Jewel thefts, missing persons, even murder are all elements in the world of the great detective Sherlock Holmes. What connects the stories in this book is that the cases he and his biographer Dr. John H. Watson investigate are based on adventures beloved of childhood. In a novel twist to the usual Holmes pastiches, Mrs. Puhl has based her plots involving Mr. Sherlock Holmes on folk tales, nursery rhymes and other snippets of children's literature. She has brought them into the Victorian era and kept them true to the expectations for Holmesian stories. But these are not children's tales. There are no talking rabbits, no flying carpets or magic wands. There is not always a happy ending. They are all grounded in the logical world of Holmes and Watson. Two men are determined to prove in a race which of them is faster. A child is missing and presumed dead. Can Sherlock Holmes help heal the mother's broken heart? A baby is found in a basket at the foot of the seventeen steps to 221b Baker Street. Did an ancient legend lead to a modern-day murder?Join Mr. Sherlock Holmes and his biographer Dr. John H. Watson as they explore the unusual cases brought to them from the land of bedtime stories and wise adages. You may never feel quite the same again about children's literature.
