Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Rising Generation
Big and little, rich and poor, naughty and good, I watch the children come and go. As they pass my window, many draw up on tip toe and peer in with a grin, knowing, even when we are still strangers, in virtue of a subtle and sure Freemasonry, that inside lurks a friend, if not accomplice.
My brother Peter pretends he does not like children. He tells them so in a gruff, bear-like growl. But it is no use: they only shriek with delight and beg him to do it again.
