    About this ebook

    What a relief it was when the woman, how mysterious she was, offered to stand as godmother for the baby no one could provide for.

    Such a relief that only the little girl's mother thinks to wonder why this woman is so intent on having a baby with the same name as herself.  And no one else notices the magic on her sledge.
