Genre

Characters

Richie Rich; Gloria Glad; Cadbury; gangsters

Synopsis

Gloria started a story which she couldn't finish. Her story starts with Gloria rowing out to sea, towards an island, and she got stuck finding an ending. Richie, Cadbury, and Gloria travel to a remote island where she could get ideas. While on the island, two gangsters had abducted Richie and Cadbury and brought them into a cave where Gloria discovered stolen gold nuggets. Gloria was unharmed, and untied Richie and Cadbury, whom then held the gangsters up until the estate police came. Gloria's story didn't have crooks and stolen loot because her teacher would not have believed the latter.
