There was a light in the pale face of little Miss Wiggin. "I do, too," she said. "That is, I love Dickens; I never read much else." Then, almost wistfully, she added: "I didn't have much chance to go to school, but once, where I went to live, I found an old set of Dickens' books that someone had left, and I've just read them over and over. I never go out nights and the people living in those books are such a lot of company for me."
