| Summary |
"The Curlytops Touring Around; or, The Missing Photograph Albums" by Howard R. Garis is a children's adventure tale written in the early 20th century. The story follows siblings Ted and Janet Martin, affectionately known as the Curlytops, as they embark on a summer vacation filled with exploration and mischief. Their adventure takes a turn when Ted finds himself trapped in an old well, leading to a series of escapades involving family, play, and an important mission to retrieve some valuable photograph albums. At the start of the story, Ted and Janet are excitedly planning their actions during summer vacation but quickly find trouble when Ted lowers himself into a dry, old well, only for the rope to slip and leave him stranded. This incident leads to a frantic search for a way to rescue him, with Janet calling for their mother, who arrives just in time to help. The ensuing narrative introduces the family's whimsical adventures, the mischief of their younger brother, William, nicknamed "Trouble," and the series of events connected to the mysterious disappearance of important albums belonging to a neighbor. This beginning sets the tone for a lighthearted narrative filled with family dynamics, playful curiosity, and impending adventure on their journey. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
