Dino’s basement was surprising, but not because there was yellow rope in it. There were lots of paintings in it and they were all of clouds. Dino’s dad had painted them.

At Sophie S.’s house, they kept their junk in the garage. There was plenty of junk in there. But no rope.

Ruby and Trevor’s house was the neatest place in the world. Even in the shed, all the stuff was in baskets and each basket had a little sign on it. Ivy and Bean found green garden string, but no rope.

They went to Prairie’s house, Sophie W.’s house, and Jake the Teenager’s house. Jake the Teenager said his gecko was sleeping, so they couldn’t come in. But he said he knew for sure he didn’t have any yellow rope. Then they went to Ivy’s house and Bean’s house, too, just to be fair. They saw many interesting things. But not one of the things they saw was a yellow rope.

After that, everyone went to Bean’s office to rest. Bean sat in her spinny chair, thinking. They had done all the kid-houses. Eight kid-houses, no rope. That left seven—no, eight—houses with no kids or tiny kids or grown-up kids. How was she going to get into those basements and sheds? Could she sneak in? She might have to break a window. Al Seven would do it in a second. Al Seven had probably never been grounded.

Ivy cleared her throat.

Bean spun.

Ivy cleared her throat again.

Bean looked at her. What?

Ivy wiggled her eyebrows. She tossed her hair.

Bean gave Ivy a bug-eyed look. What?

Ivy tapped her nose.

“What?!” Bean shouted.
