Pep #363

In "Book Mark," Betty and Veronica take it upon themselves to handle Archie's library errands, each claiming it's because of his charm—though their real motive is keeping him from meeting the new librarian, a mystery that's already stirring things up at the town's book-filled corner.

In "Stairway to the Stars," Jo and her friends turn the Lodges’ bannister into a makeshift slide, only to provoke the furious reaction of Smithers, who retaliates by waxing the rail to extreme slipperiness. The story captures the playful chaos of teenage mischief and the escalating tension between the kids and the house’s stern caretaker.
