The next, day Ellen, Jennifer, Carol and Marylou sat together in the dining room. It wasn’t meal time but they didn’t want to be in the lounge area because they wanted their conversation to be private. Also, neither Greg nor Derek was present because they particularly wanted to exclude the boys. Simply put, they were plotting.
“Don’t you think they might be angry?” asked Marylou.
“Of course they’ll be angry,” replied Carol, “And done correctly, they’ll be absolutely furious, but playing pranks is part of the away-from-home experience and we can’t let an opportunity like this go by. Haven’t you ever been at summer camp?”
“Uh … no.”
“Trust me. Pranks are a way of life at camp and the fact that this is school doesn’t change things much. Our job is to demonstrate to the boys that we are smarter, faster, and more ruthless than they are and we’ll do it too.”
This is the second book in the Once Upon a Memory series that started with Once Upon a Summer Long Ago. Join Carol, Ellen, Jennifer and Greg as they continue living, growing and having fun in a time before cell-phones, before personal computers, before even video games when young people had to find enjoyment with themselves and their friends. It was a time when the pace of life was a bit slower and time stretched onward seemingly to infinity.
