Phyllis Reynolds Naylor Quote

Beth took the binoculars. Boys, she answered.Right.Spying on us! she said, starting to smile.Right again.What are we going to do?Eddie laughed. Give them something to look at.But what?We’ll see, said Eddie.Caroline smiled to herself. Whatever did girls do without sisters? She took the binoculars again and watched as the four boys across the river slowly made their way back down the trapdoor in the roof.Whatever we do, it’s got to be good, said Eddie. If they want a show, we’ll give them something to talk about. Like what? Beth insisted. Dance naked around the yard? Eddie gave her a pained look and was quiet a moment, thinking. At last she said, Somebody has to die, and Caroline’s it.Eddie!
