| Summary |
"The Curlytops at Silver Lake; Or, On the Water with Uncle Ben" by Howard Roger Garis is a children's novel written in the early 20th century. This book follows the adventures of the Curlytop children—Ted, Janet, and their little brother Trouble—as they embark on a summer vacation at Silver Lake with their Uncle Ben. The story captures the spirit of childhood innocence through playful mischief and exploration. The opening of the story introduces the Curlytops as they are engaged in a button game at home when their puppy, Skyrocket, goes missing. The children’s playful nature is highlighted through their antics involving Trouble, who creates mayhem by knocking down buttons. Concern builds when it’s revealed that Skyrocket has disappeared from his shed, leading their mother to reassure them that he might return. The initial chapters establish the setting for a family trip to Silver Lake, filled with expectations of outdoor fun and adventures, all while hinting at the mystery of their lost furry friend.
