Excerpt from Moufflou: And Other StoriesMoufflou's masters were some boys and girls. They were very poor, but they were very merry. They lived in an old, dark, tumble-down place, and their father had been dead five years, their mother's care was all they knew, and Tasso was the eldest of them all, a lad of nearly twrenty, and he was so kind, so good, so laborious, so cheerful, and so gentle, that the children all younger than he adored him. Tasso was a gardener. Tasso, however, though the eldest and mainly the bread-winner, was not so much Moufflou's master as was little Komolo, who was only ten, and a cripple. Romolo, called generally Lolo, had taught Moufflou all he knew, and that all was a very great deal, for nothing cleverer than was Moufflou had ever walked upon four legs.Why Moufflou ?About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
