Princess of the Silver Woods - Citação

"Why must you be so short," grumbled another voice. Groggily, Oliver placed it as Princess Pansy as she continued to talk. "I mean, honestly, are you trying to grow?"
"Do you think I enjoy being short?" Petunia shot back. The she laughed, taking the sting out of her words. "Cousin Edgar keeps calling me Pocket-size! It's disgusting!"

She was in the ruins of a great palace. The rich stone carvings were crumbling, and vines had wormed their way between the cracks in the paving stones and up the sides of the square pillars.

Princess of Glass - Citação [4]

Special thanks to my children, also. My son, at the tender age of five, is not only proud of his mommy but also understands what "Mommy needs to write!" means. My daughter is frankly no help at all, but she is adorable and wonderful in every way, and so yhis book is hers.

Through her high-necked gown she fingered the little garret ring on its chain. Roger had given it to her for her twelfth birthday and she had worn it every day since. It was too small for any of her fingers now, so she wore it around her neck on a ribbon along with the locket containing her mother's portrait.

Princess of Glass - Citação [2]

Lord Richard had been in the garden with friends during most of the gala, and had not seen Lady Ella. But his ears had been filled with the story of how Poppy's gown had been copied by the mysterious upstart, as Marianne labeled her, all the way back to the manor the night before. More speculation had occurred over breakfast, of course, which caused the gentleman to barricade himself behind a newspaper.

Princess of Glass - Citação




Clothing she took to mend or iron came back with larger tears and more creases. Every fire she laid smoked and sputtered, every tray  she carried rattled until tea spilled or buns rolled off onto the floor. You could hear her coming by the clatter of dishes, and see where she was going by following the trail of broken china or crumpled stockings.
