The Mystery of the Purple Pool (2010)
“I have an appointment this afternoon. What do you children intend to do?”
“I want to swim in the purple pool,” Benny said.
Henry laughed. “I’m sure by now the pool is filled with plain, clear water — without any purple.”
“I think a swim would be very nice,” Jessie said.
“I wonder why,” Violet said, giggling.
Jessie blushed. “Violet, you are reading things into that.”
“How can she read what you said when you didn’t write it down?” Benny asked.
“We’ll explain some other time,” Henry said. “Let’s go for a swim.”
The Aldens went back to their rooms and changed into their suits. When they went up to the pool, Mike was sitting in his usual place. “Hi, Aldens,” he said.
“Can we swim today?” Benny asked.
“Sure can,” Mike replied. “Everything is in top shape.”
The children went into the pool room and saw that the water was crystal clear, sparkling in the sunlight. They dived right in. “It’s perfect,” Violet said. “Not too hot or cold.”
