It was the coldest day of the winter, and a little boy was trudging through the forest gathering firewood for his grandmother. "Bring back all you can find," the old woman had said as she sat knitting a pair of mittens. "The north wind blows cold, and we must have a good fire to keep us warm." - p. [1].
