About a hundred years ago, there lived a girl called Letitia in a small town in Europe.
“Letitia, here, take your soup.”
“Cabbage soup!! I am not having that!”
“I want apple stew or berry pudding or something like
that.”
“Certainly not a delightful person,” said Letitia's
father.
Letitia did not like anything. Nothing was
good enough for her.
“See, what father got you,” said Letitia's
mother “a brand new dress!”
“What a terrible colour! And it has no tassles,
and it has no bows or ribbons.”
“Do you know that Lora got a beautiful
golden gown the other day? You never got me
anything nice.”
“Letitia, this is your new box, with new pencils and even a new pen with it, said Letitia's
father.”
“This box looks so old and plain. Max's pencils are so much nicer than these. They have
faces made over them.”
