The Ink-Bottle Mamma and Papa said, “No more magic kites for our family.”

Then the Ink-Bottle Mamma gave them each a cup of hot chocolate and put them to bed.

CHAPTER VIII
THE MAGIC ROCKING-CHAIR

Hear the rain, April rain!

Falling on the windowpane;

Pitter, patter, all day long;

Can you hear the raindrops’ song?

“We call the flowers to bloom again,

They are refreshed by April rain.”
