Author Description

Excerpt from Cynthia Steps Out Cynthia, pinning the wig into a better fit, murmured a vague assent. But she didn't feel at all thrilled. After eight days the ship was like another home in which she knew, by sight at least, almost every occupant. Paris was go ing to be new and strange. Oh yes, a grand new adventure, but sometimes she got scared at the thought of it. So big, with all the street signs and the menus in a different language and so much that was new to learn. What if she failed to make good on the job that had brought her over, the dozen covers for Little Ones' M aga zine? Suppose she didn't have the money to stay? Suppose she couldn't make people under stand her French, even though Stasia had been coaching her all week?' Oh shut up, Cynthia!
