Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Iron Woman "Climb up in this tree, and play house!" Elizabeth Ferguson commanded. She herself had climbed to the lowest branch of an apple-tree in the Maitland orchard, and sat there, swinging her white-stockinged legs so recklessly that the three children whom she had summoned to her side, backed away for safety. "If you don´t," she said, looking down at them, "I´m afraid, perhaps, maybe, I´ll get mad." Her foreboding was tempered by a giggle and by the deepening dimple in her cheek, but all the same she sighed with a sort of impersonal regret at the prospect of any unpleasantness. "It would be too bad if I got mad, wouldn´t it?" she said thoughtfully. The others looked at one another in consternation. They knew so well what it meant to have Elizabeth "mad," that Nannie Maitland, the oldest of the little group, said at once, helplessly, "Well." Nannie was always helpless with Elizabeth, just as she was helpless with her half-brother, Blair, thought she was ten and Elizabeth and Blair were only eight, but how could a little girl like Nannie be anything but helpless before a brother whom she adored, and a wonderful being like Elizabeth? - Elizabeth!
