This is Peggy’s own drawing of what happened in the firstAdventure of the Ring. Everyone is very frightened in it.Nurse has just sat down on seeing the Giant, and hasdropped Peggy’s brown holland frock behind her.
Peggy drew the frock very carefully, spreading it outflat on the floor to get it exactly right. Mother helped herwith the Giant’s knee, and with the table. All the rest shedid herself. She knows Nurse is too small, but she was toobusy getting her surprised enough to remember to makeher bigger. Peggy is behind the Giant wondering whatto say. The little round things near the Giant’s foot arethe broken bits of the cup and saucer, and the blackdots are the currants in the cake. The curls in the Giant’sbeard were the most fun to do.
