Book Description
Excerpt from As They Looked to the Children The sense of rebellion and injustice increased as he lay there. Why should he be neglected and forgotten? It became absolutely necessary that he should force upon these grown-ups the attention he deserved. Slowly a purpose grew in his mind. He would show them. A few days before he had accidentally let fall from the window a valuable embroidered sofa cushion, which was cherished, he discovered, because it possessed, in addition to its intrinsic worth, what was called a senti mental value (which of course he did not understand) because it had been made and embroidered by Great Aunt Ann Eliza who had since departed to a region referred to as the Kingdom. This cushion fell on a flower bed which had just been watered. The incident resulted in considerable consternation and a lecture upon the respect due to other people's property. The little boy did not comprehend the lecture, but it was clear that the consternation was genuine though he did not grasp the significance of that either.
