He was English, he was adorable, and I began to know him very soon after the fairies brought him dancing to the Earth on a silver-blue Moon-ray. A little pensive in repose, his dear face was, when he smiled, the gladness of a spring meadow of golden cowslips. In my heart I treasure many memories. . . . Geoffrey coming in from his walk with a half-eaten ginger nut which he had saved for his friend: \"I brang it all the way for you\"; or Geoffrey with a crushed dandelion in a hot little fist, another offering; Geoffrey listening to nursery tales; Geoffrey adoring his mother, like whom, for him, to the end of his days, no one ever existed, or could exist; Geoffrey at five years of age, when on a rare occasion I had to leave the house without bidding him good-bye. That was a beloved nursery memory. When told that I had gone, he would not at first believe. \"She did not tell me,\" he kept insisting. But belief followed on fruitless search, and then: \"Come upstars, Nannie,\" said he to his nurse; and, when up in the nursery, old Nannie was made to cut off a gold-brown curl to wrap away in silver paper against my return.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blurb","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45152741851287,"sku":"9798880540464","price":1504.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798880540464.webp?v=1768547407","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/sun-babies-studies-in-the-child-life-of-india-9798880540464","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
