Number 8 in the series, Black Jacket
is where we first meet Dan Mangan. A
toughie from the City, Dan becomes the next member of the Bob-Whites of the
Glen. But only after he proves
himself. At first he and Trixie are
butting heads over every single thing and every time they meet. Given their attitudes towards each other we
wonder how things will work out. Tempering
the prevailing conflict is the fund raiser in which the group is involved. Trixie and Honey are intent on collecting
books to send to their Mexican pen pals, Lupe and Dolores who live in San
Isidro. Together the BWGs build
concession stands, bleachers and practice their ice-skating techniques on the
Wheeler’s lake, all in the beautiful snowy setting that befits a New England
winter.
