Book Quotes!
Okay, here's my...

Okay, here's my first book quote:

"Only two hours," she sighed. "That will be half past one; Mother will be at Cousin Ann's, the children at home will have had their dinner, and Hannah cleared all away. I have some lunch, because Mother said it would be a bad beginning to get to the brick house hungry and have Aunt Mirandy have to get me something to eat the first thing.-It's a good growing day, isn't it?"

First one to guess the book gets to post the next quote! Good luck! If no one guesses it by the 20th, I'll post another quote.
