Books with title Two's Company...

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Tessa was nearly five, her sister Daffy was eight, and Pete, who had just come to live next door, was six - almost seven. The three made friends almost at once. Eric and Colin, two bigger boys who lived close by, made fun of Pete because he liked Daffy and Tessa, but Pete was tough and stuck to his friendship. When the summer ended and he started at his new school, he would meet other boys and make more friends, but for the moment he was quite content with the girls next door. They had great fun that summer. Sometimes Pete and Tessa played together, and sometimes it was all three of them. They made masks, went flower-hunting, played Captain and Crew, planted seeds which Catty promptly scratched up again. But they had fun on their own, too: Daffy made a tremendous discovery; Pete made another, quite different, one; but perhaps Tessa made the best of all - for she found that at last she could keep a secret. "Two's company, three's none", according to the proverb; but for Daffy and Tessa and Pete that wasn't true at all.

This is a pre-1923 historical reproduction that was curated for quality. Quality assurance was conducted on each of these books in an attempt to remove books with imperfections introduced by the digitization process. Though we have made best efforts - the books may have occasional errors that do not impede the reading experience. We believe this work is culturally important and have elected to bring the book back into print as part of our continuing commitment to the preservation of printed works worldwide.
