Beautiful Children
The house was about four kilometres from the station,but after only a minute or two the children began to ask, 'Are we nearly there?' And every time they saw a house they said, 'Oh, is this it?' But it never was. Then they came to the top of a hill,and there was a white house with a green garden and lots of fruit trees. 'Here we are!' Mothere said.
Everyone hurried to get out of the carriage -- Robert, Anthea, Jane,Cyril, and Martha,the nursemaid, with the baby. But Mother did not hurry. The chilkren ran round the house and all through the garden to see what there was. But Mother stood and watched the driver while he carried the boxes into the house.
The children loved the house. They knew immediately that they were going to be happy there. Mother did not like the house very much because it was old and there were no cupboards. But it was deep in the country and after two years in London the children thoughgt that it was wonderful. If you live in london and your family is not rich,you get bored because you cannot go to shops and theatres, and people say , 'Don`t do this' and 'Don`t go there'. In the country you can go anywhere and go anything.
The white house was on the hill, with a wood behind it and a gravel-pit on one side. It was at the gravel-pit , a week later, that the children found a fairy. Well, that was what it called itself. But it was different from other fairise.
