Excerpt from The Blue Bird: Souvenir Book Over in the corner is the huge fireplace where Mummy Tyl cooks all the family meals, and against the wall is the dresser containing both cooking uten sils and table dishes. The great bread-bowl and milk jug and sugar-bucket are conveniently at hand, and in the corner near the fire is atall barrel under the pump. It looks as if it would be perfectly fascinating to climb into that barrel some day when no one was looking, work the pump handle vigorously and give one's self and one's clothes a thoroughly delightful shower bath - only, of course, one wouldn't choose Christmas Eve, when the water is sure to be cold. As soon as you have discovered what an interesting place this cottage living room is, you find that the chil dren have waked up, the Fairy has come in, told them that as she really can't do without the Blue Bird, they must set out at once to find it for her; and, best of all, furnished them with the magic diamond that is more useful than the strongest microscope that ever was invented, for just one turn will enable the children to see things as they really are inside, even down to the bottoms of their souls. And, of course, when the diamond is turned, you can see all those things, too. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
