Book description

When they arrive at The Chalet School, the Lintons are as different as two sisters can be. Gentle and thoughtful Gillian soon settles down and makes friends, but wilful Joyce refuses to obey school rules or respect classroom honour. Problems come to a head when Joyce organizes a midnight feast.
