Three little Trippertrots : How they ran away and how they got back again by Garis
"Three Little Trippertrots: How They Ran Away and How They Got Back Again" by Howard R. Garis is a children's adventure story written in the early 20th century. The book follows the escapades of three young siblings—Tommy, Johnny, and Mary Trippertrot—as they navigate a series of playful adventures in their city while managing to get lost and eventually find their way home. The whimsical narrative reflects the curiosity and mischief typical of
childhood. The opening portion introduces the Trippertrot children as they decide to sneak out of their house while their nursemaid is distracted. Excited by the prospect of adventure, they explore their neighborhood, encounter various sights, and end up at a toy store where they pretend to choose toys. However, they soon realize they do not know how to return home, leading to a mix of excitement and anxiety as they seek assistance from a friendly policeman. This engaging beginning sets the tone for a lighthearted tale filled with imaginative scenarios and valuable lessons about safety, kindness, and the importance of staying close to home.
