How different from the monsters one reads about in children's books On the contrary, though they had little quarrels together now and then, they did not bite nor scratch, but seemed to live together as peaceably and lovingly, on the whole, as most married couples. And the only time he had a full view of their faces, Little Jacket saw in them an expression which was really good and benevolent.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
