Summary of a Little Girl LITTLE girl is a person who knows dolls have feelings; who always has room for another cookie; who will freely admit that she is getting quite old; who appreciates that she is causing a stir with her new dress; who thinks little boys should be shown their place; who catches her breath when she hears a naughty word; who sometimes feels she must stamp her foot; who could spend several weeks at a zoo; who jumps with joy when she sees a robin; who likes to have butter spread on thick; who hopes some day to enjoy a whole box of candy by herself ; who knows there are fairies; who loves to visit with Grandma; who realizes that hair ribbons make all the difference in the world; who loves to glance into the mirror; who just can’t go to sleep the night before her first party; who wishes one could have a birthday every day; who can't stop picking flowers; who finds stroking a cat a source of infinite satisfaction; who hopes everybody will notice her new shoes; who knows Mother will understand; who some- times wishes she were dead; who can consume an ice-cream soda very quickly; who is overcome with grief for the misfortunes of the princess in the story-book; who is usually ready to say a piece before company ; who shames boys by her behavior in church; who thinks Mother ought to be told what happens to be going on outside; who had rather be buried than go to the party with the same old dress; who sometimes tires of being a lady; who can stretch gum fully a yard; who knows just what she will do when married; and whose greatest happiness is sitting in Daddy’s lap.
