    About this ebook

    Then I was a little girl, which is now a good many years ago, there came to spend some time with us a cousin who had been brought up in Germany.  
     
    She was almost grown-up—to me, a child of six or seven, she seemed quite grown-up; in reality, she was, I suppose, about fifteen or sixteen. She was a bright, kind, good-natured girl, very anxious to please and amuse her little English cousins, especially me, as I was the only girl.  
     
    But she had not had much to do with small children; above all, delicate children, and she was so strong and hearty herself that she did not understand anything about nervous fears and fancies.

    Mary Louisa Molesworth

    Mary Louisa Molesworth (1839–1921), also credited as Mrs. Molesworth, was born in the Netherlands but raised in England. She was best known for her work in children’s literature where she was often cited as "the Jane Austen of the nursery.” Some of her novels include The Cuckoo Clock (1877), A Christmas Child (1880) and The Carved Lions (1895). She would also write a series of supernatural and fantasy titles such as Four Ghost Stories (1888) and Uncanny Tales (1896).
