Rilla of Ingleside

Category: Author:Lucy Maud Montgomery 

It was a warm, golden-cloudy, lovable afternoon. In the big living-room at Ingleside Susan Baker sat down with a certain grim satisfaction hovering about her like an aura; it was four o'clock and Susan, who had been working incessantly since six that morning, felt that she had fairly earned an hour of repose and gossip.

The Forest Runners

Category: Author:Joseph A. Altsheler 

 Paul stopped in a little open space, and looked around all the circle of the forest.
