A Fourth Generation Book

This is not a traditional review. It is a comment that I read it Goops as a child when I inherited it from a cousin. My children read it as did theirs! At 74, I can still quote directly ! "The Goops they lick their fingers, the Goops they lick their knives. They spill their broth on the table cloth ,Oh, they lead disgusting lives !" It is in the group that includes The Secret Garden, Great Expectations, and coming up rapidly, The Mixed Up File of Mrs. Basil Frankweiler.Now does some one know these lines? "Spring's the time for marbles and Fall's the time for kites.........." That book came with Goops in 1932.How about " 'Quack', said Jerusha, 'I think I am a duck' "The fourth generation deserves to know about these,too!.

Are you a goop?
