Our Next-Door Neighbors (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from Our Next-Door Neighbors We were born and bred in the same little home-grown city and as a small boy, even, I was Silvia's worshiper, but perforce a worshiper from afar.

Our Next Door Neighbour


Book Description

Excerpt from Our Next Door Neighbour: A Story for Children First, you must feel a tiny bit - sad, I was going to say, but perhaps pensive would be better. Then you must sit down in a very large, comfortable, softly-cushioned chair, and you must not think about anything. You must try not even to think whether you are thinking. Then open your ears wide, and shut your eyes tight, and after awhile you will hear a distant booming sound, much the same noise the insects make when they chatter together in the lime trees in the early summer days; just a lazy, muffled, humming noise. This is the fairies bringing the story to you. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
