Nell and Her Grandfather
Book Overview:
If you have heard of the Dickens novel, The Old Curiosity Shop, and remember Nell Trent, the beautiful and virtuous young girl of "not quite fourteen", an orphan, who lived with her maternal grandfather in his shop of odds and ends, then you will understand that these stories take place in the same time period as the book and have the same lovable and quirky characters. Not written by Dickens, of course, they try and succeed in my mind to carry on our enjoyment of hearing of the escapades of the people and England we love.

"You must not think too much of what I said, my friend," said the other.
"No," returned the old man thoughtfully, "no.—Come hither, Nell."
The little girl hastened from her seat, and put her arm round his neck.
"Do I love thee, Nell?" said he. "Say, do I love thee, Nell, or no?"
The child only answered by her caresses, and laid her head upon his breast.
