About the Book

EXPLORING THE NEW HOME Two days after the night of the memorable surprise party in the little brown house, the place stood dismantled and deserted under the naked, shivering trees, good-byes had been spoken, and the six smiling sisters had driven away from their Parker home amid much fluttering of handkerchiefs and waving of hands. Everyone was sorry to see them go, yet all rejoiced in the great good fortune which had befallen the little orphan brood. Even after the Judges carriage, which was to take them to the station, disappeared around the bend of the creek road, the enthusiastic crowd of friends and neighbors clustered about the sagging gate continued to shout their joking warnings and happy wishes upon the crisp, frosty, morning air. There, breathed Peace, grinning from ear to ear, as she slowly unwound from the corkscrew twist she had assumed in her attempt to catch the last glimpse of the old home. Theyre all out of sight now. I cant even see Hec Abbott any longer up in the tree with his dirty handkerchief. Oh, Mr. Judge, I forgot you were our coachman this morning, but his handkerchief is awful dirty! It always is. I guess his mother doesnt chase him up like Gail does us with clean ones. Faith Greenfield, what do you mean by kicking me like that? Aint there room enough on that back seat for your big feet? Little girls should be heard and not seen, quoted Cherry with her most sanctimonious air, noting the gathering frown on the older sisters face, and not quite understanding what had gone amiss. Yes, thats just what Peace believes, too, cried Hope with her happy, contagious laugh in which Gail and the Judge and even Faith joined, making the sharp air ring with their hilarity. Guess this ride must make you feel ticklish, too, suggested Peace, looking over her shoulder with a comical, self-complacent air at the crowded rear seat of the carryall. I xpected to see some of you bawling about now- Bawling! echoed the girls in genuine surprise, while the old Judge chuckled to himself. What for? Cause weve left Parker for good and all. Were never going to live there any more. But we shall visit there often. Grandpa said so, cried Hope, warmly. It isnt as if we were bound for the poor-farm or some dreadful orphan home. We might have reason to cry then; but as it is, were going to Martindale to live in a splendid great house with splendid, lovely people; and I cant help wanting to jump up and shout for gladness, even though we do love Parker and all the people there who have been so good to us- Good for you, Miss Hope! Hip, hip, hurrah! broke in the Judge, flapping the reins wildly as he doffed his hat and cheered heartily. Thats the proper spirit! We Parkerites dont expect you to break your hearts because you are going to a new home; wed think it very queer indeed if you did. But we are glad to know this old town holds a tender spot in your memories. We shall miss you more than you will us, which is only natural; but as Hope says, you will be often among us as visitors, even though the little brown house will never be home to you again....
