Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4,686
The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

The climax of Marcy's last year in high school was destined to be the Senior Prom. From Christmas vacation on it was a busy and happy time for Marcy. There was her appointment as feature editor of the school paper, her regular chess games with sweet old Mr. Tuttle, and an exciting trip to Washington and New York. Perhaps most notably was the problem of Bruce and Rick. Bruce, with his yellow convertible and his charm, his humor and good looks....Rick, reliable, unselfish, and attractive, but shy and unable to dance...and Senior Prom a few weeks off!

When Tobey Heydon wears Brose's class ring, her family insists that it be understood they are not "going steady." This inevitably leads straight into difficulties and misunderstandings. But what Brose likes best about Tobey, better even than her nearly-red hair and her smile, is that she is so honest. A boy appreciates that quality in a girl. So when she tells him she is going to a college dance with another man, he is secretly reassured even while he growls. However, things become more and more complicated until the class ring changes hands...for a while.

Another good, old fashioned story!
The virtual voice sounded just fine and I enjoyed this 3rd book in the Pam and Penny saga. Fun to learn about life on a showboat in the fifties!
