A Missionary Twig

By Emma L. Burnett

A Missionary Twig by Emma L. Burnett is about a small family living in England. Burnett writes about the frivolous and exciting Marty and the reserved and diligent Edith. Excerpt: "I do think Edith is the queerest girl I ever saw in all my life!" said Marty Ashford. "Don't jump up and down behind my chair that way, Marty," said her mother; "you shake me so that I can scarcely hold my needle. What does Edith do that is so queer?" "Oh, she's always putting ten into things." "Putting ten into things?" "Yes'm. I mean when she gets any money she always says ten will go into it so many times, and then she takes a tenth of it—you know we learn about tenths in fractions at school—and goes and puts it in a blue box she has."
