Elsie on the Hudson and Elsewhere (Classic Reprint)Fb&c Limited, 6 de mar. de 2018 - 340 páginas Excerpt from Elsie on the Hudson and Elsewhere Oh, what a lovely sight! Exclaimed Ln cilla. I am so glad, papa, that we are out in time to see it. Yes, he said, it is worth the giving up of an extra hour of sleep. Especially as we can take that during the day if we feel the need of it. I would never have you do without needed sleep, daughter. There is nothing gained by it in the end. N o, papa, but I think I do not need so much as do some others, - Gracie, for instance, - and I do so enjoy these early walks and talks with you - the dearest father that ever any girl had, I am sure, she added, giving him a look of ardent affection. Ah, but you must remember there are some fathers you haven't tried, he returned with a slight laugh of amusement, but accompanied by a fond pressure of the pretty white hand she had slipped into his. Yet I am just as sure as if I had tried them all, father, she laughed. There may perhaps be some few nearly as good, but I know they can't be any better. Oh, see! Yonder is a yacht coming up the river. I wish it was ours. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
