THE CURLYTOPS AT SUNSET BEACH
CHAPTER I
THE CIRCUS PARADE
“When will it be time to go, Mother?” asked Janet Martin, as she swung to and fro on the front gate.
“Pretty soon,” was the answer from Mrs. Martin, who was sitting on the shady porch.
“How long is pretty soon?” Ted Martin wanted to know. He was throwing stones at the fence, trying to send them through a knot hole. And it wasn’t easy, he found. Though he had tossed many pebbles, not one had Ted sent through the hole.

“I’ll go with her,” offered Teddy, who was a year older than his sister. “I’ll take care of her,” he added, looking toward his mother.

But Janet did not seem much impressed.
“Pooh!” she exclaimed. “You don’t need to take care of me, Teddy Martin! I can take care of myself!”
“Oh, Janet! That wasn’t kind, when Teddy offered to watch you,” chided her mother. “You shouldn’t have said that.”
“Well, Teddy can look after himself,” said Janet, with a little shake of her head which sent her ringlets of hair flying into and out of her eyes. “And I’ll look after myself,” she added. “Course, I didn’t want to be impolite,” she continued. “But——”
