Returning from Baltimore with his wife and children, a successful writer is haunted by an accident that should have claimed his life, and a girl who has been missing for thirteen years mysteriously returns. Original.
THE CHILDREN'S HOUR is a "must read" according to Dr. Robson's colleagues in the field of child psychiatry. They are delighted by the book's combination of compassion, insight, poetry, and candor. They find its emphasis on non-chemical therapy to be a necessary antidote to the more mechanistic, biological approaches currently in vogue. And they note that the book is equally important to professionals and the general public. No one can read this engaging, witty, devastatingly honest, and wonderfully wise memoir without feeling its direct relevance to the sorrows, dangers, and triumphs we have all experienced as children and continue to experience in the lives of the young in our immediate and extended families. Whoever we are, wherever we have been, this book cuts deeply into our common humanity.

They stood at the henhouse window and watched the falling snow. It covered every nook and corner of the farmyard. "Yes, indeed," said the brown hen; "I would be almost willing to be made into chicken pie on such a day." She had scarcely stopped talking, when the Pekin duck said fretfully: "I am dreadfully hungry." Then a little flock of speckled chickens all huddled together peeped: "And we are so thirsty!" In fact, the feathered folks in the henhouse were cross and discontented. Since the farmer's boy had fed them, early in the morning, they had been given nothing to eat or drink. Hour after hour went by. The cold winter wind howled around their house. It is no wonder that they felt deserted. The handsome white rooster, though, seemed quite as happy as usual. That is saying a great deal, for a jollier, betternatured old fellow than he never lived in a farmyard. Sunshine, rain, or snow were all the same to him. He crowed quite as lustily in stormy as in fair weather. "Well," he said, as his bright eyes glanced about the henhouse, "you all seem to be having a fit of the dumps." Nobody answerd the white rooster, but a faint cluck or two came from some hens. At once they put their heads back under their wings, as if ashamed of having spoken at all. This was quite too much for the white rooster. He stood first on one yellow foot and then on the other. He turned his head from side to side, and said: "Well, we are a lively set! Any one would think, to look in here, that we were surrouded by a band of hungry foxes." Just then a daring little bantam rooster hopped down from his perch. He strutted over to the big rooster, and said: "We are all lively...
