Excerpt from From Hay-Time to Hopping
Mamma, must Clara take the pretty scissors and thimble from the workbox pap'a gave me last birthday? And must she have the book he brought home yesterday? You know he said it was not to be touched by any of us.
Here Clara, a pretty child of four years old, lifted up her voice in a loud and passionate en treaty for permission to look at the forbidden volume, and at the same time clutched tightly, in her tiny hands, the little silver-bowed scissors which Letty claimed as her especial property.
