Patty's Motor Car. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Carolyn Wells - Pubme, 2016 -
Patty was curled up in her favourite big easy-chair in her own study.Though called a study, because it had been used as such during her schooldays, the pretty room was really more like a boudoir. Her desk was still there, but was now filled with programmes, friendly letters, and social correspondence instead of school themes or problems. The general colouring of the room was green, but the sash curtains of thin yellow silk, and the heap of yellow sofa cushions, did much to lighten the effect, and gave the room a sunshiny air, even on a dull day. The couch, and the two big, soft, cuddly chairs were upholstered in yellow-flowered chintz, and on the pale green walls hung Patty’s favourite pictures, and many curios or souvenirs of her year spent abroad.It was the first of March, so the room was brightened both by a big bowlful of yellow daffodils and a blazing wood fire. The two things Patty liked best in life were warmth and colour, and so to-day she was sitting near the fire, with the splendid yellow glory of the daffodils in full view.
Dick and Dolly. E-book. Formato Mobipocket Carolyn Wells - Pubme, 2016 -
Dick and Dolly were twins and had been twins for nine years.Most of these years had been spent with Grandma Banks and Aunt Helen, for Dick and Dolly were orphaned when they were tiny tots, and Aunt Helen Banks was their mother’s sister.Then, about two years ago, Grandma Banks had died, and now Aunt Helen was to be married and go far away across the sea to live.So their Chicago home was broken up, and the twins were sent to the old Dana homestead in Connecticut, to live with their father’s people.This transfer of their dwelling-place didn’t bother Dick and Dolly much, for they were philosophical little people and took things just as they happened, and, moreover, they were so fond of each other, that so long as they were together, it didn’t matter to them where they were.But to the two people who lived in the old Dana place, and who were about to receive the twin charges, it mattered a great deal.
