Indeed, he himself was so cheerful, that as the autumn days, one after another, melted away, it was some little time before he noticed that Gabriel was losing his merriness, and that he had begun to look sad and distressed.

"As Uncle Denny says, I'm so hungry me soul is hanging by a string. Come on, Penelope." Penelope entered Jim's life as simply and as easily as Saradokis did. Sara charmed both Jim and Penelope.
