Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rose of Dutchers Coolly Rose was an unaccountable child from the start. She learned to speak early, and while she did not use "baby-talk" she had strange words of her own. She called hard money "tow" and a picture "tac," names which had nothing to do with onomatopoeia, though it seemed so in some cases. Bread and milk she called "plop." She began to read of her own accord when four years old, picking out the letters from the advertisements of the newspapers, and running to her mother at the sink or bread-board to learn what each word meant. Her demand for stories grew to be a burden. She was in satiate, nothing but sleep subdued her eager brain. As she grew older she read and re-read her picture-books when alone, but when older people were talking she listened as attentively as if she understood every word. She had the power of amusing herself and visited very little with other children. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
