Do boys really act as girls, too? Pantomimes sound really strange.

It was a nuisance. An adventure was one thing - but an adventure without anything to eat was quite another thing. That wouldn't do at all. (The Valley of Adventure)

In the mystery of the strange bundle-- Larry and Daisy have to go o home early to meet an aunt after having tea in Pip's place-what was the name of the aunt?
