Hard Hat (2013)
“Lisa asked.
“What?” Carole asked.
“That’s it,” said Lisa.
“I don’t hear anything.”
“Isn’t it wonderful?” asked Lisa, sighing.
Carole smiled. “Yes, it’s wonderful,” she said finally. There were no noises at all coming through the baby monitor except the gentle, even sounds of a child breathing.
Lisa was stretched out on Max and Deborah’s sofa. Carole sat nearby, draped sideways across an oversized, overstuffed chair. Carole’s attention was focused on the book she held, which was about the benefi...ts of longeing horses. Lisa was reading The Black Stallion for the fourteenth time. The girls felt completely content and relaxed—now that Maxi was asleep.

Besides, it gave them a chance to pick really good books from Max’s library.MoreLess
