Snowbound Mystery (2010)
“The next day the weather had changed. The sky was very gray. There was no sun. But the Aldens started out for the store.
“It’s much colder today,” Violet said. She put up her hood and tied it under her chin.
Jessie said, “No blue sky today. Maybe yesterday was a weather breeder, after all. You remember Barbara said she thought a storm was coming.”
“Well, never mind,” said Benny. “After all, it’s too early for snow. And the radio report said the storm would not hit us.”
Benny trotted along with ...Watch. They walked faster this time. They did not stop to look at anything on the path.
“Two and a half miles is a long way on a chilly day,” said Jessie, “but it’s just a nice walk in good weather. We’d better not stay very long at the store, Henry.”
“Right,” agreed Henry. He looked up at the sky again. “The clouds seem to be getting heavier,” he said. “I hope we can fix that roof before it rains again.”
At last the four Aldens reached the Nelsons’ store.MoreLess
