doll house

      ONCE upon a time there was a very beautiful doll's-house; it was red brick with white windows, and it had real muslin curtains and a front door and a chimney.

dolls and packing case

      IT belonged to two Dolls called Lucinda and Jane; at least it belonged to Lucinda, but she never ordered meals.

      Jane was the Cook; but she never did any cooking, because the dinner had been bought ready-made, in a box full of shavings.

much pretty food

      THERE were two red lobsters and a ham, a fish, a pudding, and some pears and oranges.

      They would not come off the plates, but they were extremely beautiful.

Tom Thump popping out to see

      ONE morning Lucinda and Jane had gone out for a drive in the doll's perambulator. There was no one in the nursery, and it was very quiet. Presently there was a little scuffling, scratching noise in a corner near the fire-place, where there was a hole under the skirting-board.

      Tom Thumb put out his head for a moment, and then popped it in again.

      Tom Thumb was a mouse.

Both mice looking out hole

      A MINUTE afterwards, Hunca Munca, his wife, put her head out, too; and when she saw that there was no one in the nursery, she ventured out on the oilcloth under the coal-box.

creeping up to the house

      THE doll's-house stood at the other side of the fire-place. Tom Thumb and Hunca Munca went cautiously across the hearthrug. They pushed the front door—it was not fast.
