Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from In School and Out of School
Their school being selected, they were informed of the day when they would be likely to enter it. At this news joy sparkled in their faces but not that excessive joy that too much resembles those ?owers that bloom and die in a day. They did not beg their parents to let them go and then give them trouble, by making Objections when the time arrived, but patiently waited the event, form ing good resolutions of future behaviour, which they were so happy as not merely to make, but to Observe.
