From the Back Cover
--from the foreword by Judith Viorst
From What the Dormouse Said:
On Silence: "Perhaps after all it is just as well to speak only once a year and then speak to the purpose."
--Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm, Kate Douglas Wiggin
On Pleasure: "Believe me, my young friend, ther is nothing--absolutely nothing--half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats."
--The Wind in the Willows, Kenneth Grahame
On Acceptance: "The world is full of happiness, and plenty to go round, if you are only willing to take the kind that comes your way."
--Daddy-Long-Legs, Jean Webster
