Reader's note

This classic book is a real vintage gem! It tells the story of two young women who have been left destitute and have to find different ways to earn a living. This tale is set in 1919 so things were very different for them as I'm sure you can imagine! This is all achieved with a real sense of comradery and mischievous dialogue that leaps off the pages. In the very first chapter, Jane contemplates renaming a disease so that it sounds nicer - Fate, indeed ! " she said. " Why, the whole thing's Fate. Emmeline asks us here — good old Emmy 1 — because we'd nowhere to go when everybody got mumps. I shall always respect mumps for getting us this extra month's holiday. I wish it had a prettier name — Mompessa, or something* like that ; we have the time of our lives amid all this ancestral splendour. - humour despite circumstances! This is one of E. Nesbit's lesser known titles, make sure that you don't overlook it!
