Exploits of the Chalet Girls by Elinor M. Brent-Dyer

3.0

In the 9th book, we are introduced to Thekla, a Prussian girl who considers herself to be superior to many of the other girls at the school (given that they are the "daughters of shopkeepers"). Most of the story revolves around Thekla's dreadfulness, although we have the usual mishaps (Evadne blows up the science lab, Cornelia falls down a pit). After an accident at the staff party, Thekla has a talking to and becomes more resigned to her position at the school - she's even given a minor part in the Christmas play - but we're left to wonder how long this will last.
