Explore "The Story Girl" by Lucy Maud Montgomery on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
The next day the Story Girl coaxed Uncle Roger to take her to Markdale, and there she bought our dream books. They were ten cents apiece, with ruled pages and mottled green covers. My own lies open beside me as I write, its yellowed pages inscribed with the visions that haunted my childish slumbers on those nights of long ago.
On the cover is pasted a lady's visiting card, on which is written, "The Dream Book of Beverley King. " Cecily had a packet of visiting cards which she was hoarding against the day when she would be grown up and could put the calling etiquette of the _Family Guide_ into practice; but she generously gave us all one apiece for the covers of our dream books.
