"Bring me a tortilla then, with chile Colorado."
She was half-sitting, half-lying on a bed of bracken, and around her she could see the supine forms of four other children Prudence and Grizzel, Dick and Jerry all lying in various attitudes of exhaustion and apparently all asleep. Mollie was too lazy to turn her head, but she could see that they were in a wood.
