Description

Linda All-Alone — While on holiday in Littlehaven, Linda Thornley discovers a cave that belonged to a hermit called Old Tabitha. There is a verse on the wall beside a skeleton that warns that anyone who disturbs the peace of Old Tabitha will receive her curse of loneliness. Linda cannot get the rhyme out of her head, and then wonders if it is coming true when things begin to go wrong for her and she becomes increasingly unpopular and friendless. Little Lord Percival — Pauline Pratt finds a ventriloquist's dummy, Little Lord Percival, but discovers he is evil and causes a lot of trouble that she gets the blame for. Eventually she realises that Lord Percival is possessed by the spirit of Fred Vernon-Vaisley ("Vernon the Valet"), a ventriloquist with a difficult, quarrelsome personality. Vaisley's personality led to his "sad end" after a quarrel with a fellow performer, Mr Grantley, and now Lord Percival is out for revenge on Mr Grantley. Beatty's Bingo Card — Beatty Ward is a selfish girl who always wants her own way, and she never helps out or shows consideration for others. One day Beatty grumbles about there being no bingo for kids, but then she is surprised to receive a bingo card in the post – on a Sunday. It comes with the message: "A prize more precious than them all, if by full moon, full house you call." It makes no sense until Beatty brings home a football jersey with the number 3 on it and then the number 3 just vanishes from the card. Greed overtakes Beatty and she becomes determined to get all the other numbers on the card by the full moon to collect the riches that must surely be waiting for her. Between Friends — Best friends fancy the same boy and each is finding it difficult to break the news to the other. I’ll Make Them Want Me! — Katie Carew lives in Cherrytree Home. She is determined to find a Mum and Dad, but she has a problem – she is a walking disaster area.
