Inspired by a vacation to the Austrian Alps, Elinor M. Brent-Dyer wrote The School at the Chalet, launching a series that would span more than 60 books. The series follows the adventures of a boarding school set in the picturesque Swiss Alps. The series begins with The School at the Chalet (1925), where readers are introduced to Miss Madge Bettany, a young woman who decides to start a school for girls in the Swiss mountains. The series then chronicles the growth and evolution of the school, as well as the trials and triumphs of its students.
The Chalet School now boasts over 30 pupils. The autumn term sees adventures of all kinds - a flood that threatens the school and the dramatic rescue of an unwanted St Bernard puppy. Finally Joey, Robin and Madge spend a delightful Christmas at Innsbruck.
When they arrive at The Chalet School, the Lintons are as different as two sisters can be. Gentle and thoughtful Gillian soon settles down and makes friends, but wilful Joyce refuses to obey school rules or respect classroom honour. Problems come to a head when Joyce organizes a midnight feast.
"From its small beginnings, the Chalet School grows to be one of the most famous girl's schools in the world.

It was a risky undertaking, for the rope was wearing thin, but there was nothing else for it. she had got halfway when it suddenly gave, and she fell ..."--Back cover.
"It is the Chalet School's second term at Plas Howell, and Robin, aged 16, is Head Girl. She worries how she will measure up to all the Head Girls who have gone before. But she doesn't have too much opportunity to worry, being flung into the hurly-burly of life at school, with naughty Juniors, troubled Seniors and unruly Middles. And then life is made all the more complicated when Joey's youngest daughter, Margot, becomes dangerously ill."--Publisher's advertisment.
A horrible shock awaits the girls of St Hilda's at the beginning of the autumn term - a fire has completely destroyed their school. Gillie Garston and her friends find themselves enrolled at the neighbouring Chalet School - and they're not at all sure they're going to like it.
