To her loving Mammy and Pappy
she is known, on approximately al

devil child". It was on her devil
child days that Rosebud tied the
knots in the shirts that Mammy had
taken in for washing, and poured the
whole of the vanilla bottle into the
lamb stew, just, she said later
through bitter tears, to “flavor it up

Rosebud is a great reader of the

Bunny had put under her pillow the
night her tooth came out. After
breakfast Rosebud disappeared down

with a beautiful ten-cent War Stamp
pasted firmly into a brand-new book
with neat little squares for more
stamps. She displayed her invest
ment to Mammy. “I declare you’re
an angel child,” Mammy said. Rose-
bud went on sitting on the kitchen
floor staring with large brown eyes
at the empty squares in her book.
From time to time she took hold of
one or another of her teeth and
wiggled it, gently.
Mammy was engrossed in a par
ticularly big washing. Rosebud was
as quiet as a mouse and Mammy
forgot about her until, coming in
from the yard with her arms full of
dry sheets, she encountered her child
with a large hammer in her hand.
