Description
Excerpt from The Child of the Moat: A Story for Girls, 1557 A. D
As for the grown-ups the story is not written for grown ups, and if they want to know why it begins with such a gruesome first chapter, let them ask the children. Chil dren like the horrors first and the end all bright. Many grown-ups like the tragedy at the end. But perhaps the children are right and the grown-ups are standing on their heads. Besides they can skip the first chapter; it is only a prologue.
