It is a must-read for anyone who loves classic children's literature.Jack and Jill never cared to say much about the night which followed the first coasting party of the season, for it was the saddest and the hardest their short lives had ever known. Jack suffered most in body; for the setting of the broken leg was such a painful job, that it wrung several sharp cries from him, and made Frank, who helped, quite weak and white with sympathy, when it was over.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
