Molly spread a crayon map across the kitchen table, anchoring its corners with stale biscuits. The target was a birthday party at Number Twelve, where a suspiciously extravagant mountain of presents awaited an unsuspecting six-year-old. Bill studied the drawing through a magnifying glass, although Molly had labeled everything in letters three inches tall. “The clown entrance is our best bet,” Molly said. “Unless the clown knows karate,” Bill said. Molly tapped a red circle beside the garden gate. Their disguises were ready: oversized shoes, rainbow wigs, and noses that squeaked whenever they breathed. The getaway vehicle, unfortunately, was a borrowed pony called Custard, whose top speed depended entirely on his opinion of carrots. “Then we improvise with cake,” Molly said. “I hate cake,” Bill said. Molly explained that the cake was not for eating. It would provide cover while they loaded the gifts into Custard’s saddlebags. Bill pointed out that a six-year-old might notice two clowns stealing every present. Molly considered this, then drew a mustache on the birthday child. It was not a solution, but it made the map look considerably more professional. Outside, Custard ate their getaway carrots and began working his way through Bill’s brand-new leather saddle.
