Author Description

Excerpt from Grandmother Dear, And, Two Little Waifs Of course I know that, said Molly. You don't suppose I thought our grandmother was every body's grandmother, you silly boy. What I say is she's just like a real grandmother - not like Nora Leslie's, who is always scolding Nora's mother for spoiling her children, and wears such grand, quite young lady dresses, and has black hair, with an accent of profound disgust, not nice, beautiful, soft, silver hair, like our grandmother's. Now, isn't it true, Sylvia, isn't our grandmother just like a real one? Sylvia smiled. She replied. She would almost do for a fairy godmother, if only she had a stick with a gold knob.
