This is Peggy’s own drawing of what happened in the first
Adventure of the Ring. Everyone is very frightened in it.
Nurse has just sat down on seeing the Giant, and has
dropped Peggy’s brown holland frock behind her.
Peggy drew the frock very carefully, spreading it out
flat on the floor to get it exactly right. Mother helped her
with the Giant’s knee, and with the table. All the rest she
did herself. She knows Nurse is too small, but she was too
busy getting her surprised enough to remember to make
her bigger. Peggy is behind the Giant wondering what
to say. The little round things near the Giant’s foot are
the broken bits of the cup and saucer, and the black
dots are the currants in the cake. The curls in the Giant’s
beard were the most fun to do.
