Text A
Once there were four children whose names were Peter, Susan, Edmund and
Lucy. This story is about something that happened to them when they were
sent away from London during the war because of the air-raids. They were
sent to the house of an old Professor who lived in the heart of the country, ten
miles from the nearest railway station and two miles from the nearest post
office. He had no wife and he lived in a very large house with a housekeeper
called Mrs. Macready and three servants. (Their names were Ivy, Margaret
and Betty, but they do not come into the story much.) He himself was a very
old man with shaggy white hair, which grew over most of his face as well as on
his head, and they liked him almost at once; but on the first evening when he
came out to meet them at the front door he was so odd-looking that Lucy (who
was the youngest) was a little afraid of him, and Edmund (who was the next
youngest) wanted to laugh and had to keep on pretending he was blowing his
nose to hide it. As soon as they had said good night to the Professor and gone
upstairs on the first night, the boys came into the girls’ room and they all
talked it over. 3
