Star People

What the Princesss name was isnt to be told, and she was not a real princess. But that made no difference to the Others. She was the most wonderful person they knew, and everything a princess should be, and they loved her loyally. Prudence was the oldest, and very wise. (That was why she was Prudence, but more often the Princess said, Miss Phyllis-y.) She had brown eyes, clear and steady, and short hair. There was a perky little lock on one side of the middle of her forehead that reminded the Princess of a question mark. She was small and looked years younger than she was, and that made her funny when she was so sagacious. Pat was the tallest and the most impatient. (So they called her Patiencebecause she wasnt!and shortened it to Pat.) She talked with her eyebrows; and sometimes they would fairly frighten you if you didnt know she couldnt do it! Her hair was braided and tied tight, but usually a good deal of it escaped and ruffled before it reached the braids. She was over nine and Miss Phyllisy was not far from twelve, and they considered the Kitten extremely young,which the Kitten didnt deny. She was young, and she had other kitten-tricks,like coming and sitting on a persons knee without being invited when she wanted to, and other times being very independent and going her own ways; and she made soft little songs for herself,that 3didnt begin or end any more than a real kittens,and purring sounds instead of talking when she was pleased. But she could talk faster than countless kittens when there was any occasion for it. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
