James Henry Trotter

"And James Henry Trotter, who once, if you
remember, had been the saddest and loneliest little boy that you could find, now had all the friends and
playmates in the world. And because so many of them were always begging him to tell and tell again
the story of his adventures on the peach, he thought it would be nice if one day he
sat down and wrote
it as a book."
