In "Freddy," a young man is forced to run a mile after his car breaks down near a barber shop, then must show an apartment to a prospective tenant. Later, Freddy encounters Milly Verne at a tree, where he arranges to pick her up in his father's car. At a party at Freddy's house, his mother gives him a birthday present while Milly's mother arrives to celebrate her own birthday; the guests begin whistling and making catcalls at the women in their skirts, leading to comedic chaos as the women attempt to silence them with threats and bribes.

Contains 5 stories
Peggy's Big Date
5 pp · Teen

When Freddy procrastinates asking Peggy to the school dance, he discovers she's already committed to going with Rip—so he hatches a scheme to make his rival unavailable. But his plan to sabotage the evening backfires in unexpected ways, leaving everyone scrambling to find a date before the big night.

Upstairs for Rent
6 pp · Teen

Freddy discovers a pretty young woman named Myra interested in renting the upstairs apartment, and his teenage heart leaps—until he learns she's only there to see the place with her father, Mr. Mintleaf. When Freddy's family agrees to rent to Mr. Mintleaf instead, Freddy's hopes soar that Myra will be moving in, but a mix-up leads to an unexpected turn of events that leaves him with a very different afternoon ahead than he'd imagined.

Gift-Goofed
5 pp · Teen

When Peggy hears that Fredgy is giving a gift to another girl on his birthday, she's convinced he's been unfaithful—but her hasty detective work leads her on a wild chase that's far from what she suspected. As Peggy races to uncover the truth, she discovers there's more to Freddy's mysterious errand than meets the eye, and her own assumptions might be the real problem. This 1959 teen comedy turns a simple misunderstanding into a lesson about jumping to conclusions.

Oh, That Boy
5 pp · Teen

When Thaddeus Tantrum arrives at a tourist cabin for a peaceful vacation, the last thing he expects is to find his noisy neighbor Freddy Finch staying right next door—armed with a borrowed violin. As Freddy's well-meaning but disruptive antics keep derailing Tantrum's attempts at fishing and butterfly collecting, the grumpy vacationer finds himself at his wit's end. But sometimes the best vacations take an unexpected turn when you least expect it.

The Whistlers
4 pp · Teen

Freddy and a friend make a bet about whether some wolf-whistling boys would whistle at girls no matter how they looked, so they dig up some hideous masks and ratty clothes to test the theory. When they confront the whistlers in disguise, they're in for a surprise about what the boys were actually doing all along.
