"Trif and Trixy: A story of a dreadfully delightful little girl and her adoring and tormented parents, relations, and friends" by John Habberton is a charming story that follows the spirited little girl, Trixy. Though she feels like she's all grown up, this little seven-year-old doesn't always know the depths of the trouble she gets herself into. It's enough to make her family and friends go crazy, if not for the fact that she's so easy to love.

Excerpt from Trif and Trixy: A Story of a Dreadfully Delightful Little Girl and Her Adoring and Tormented Parents, Relations and Friends Trixy was not a babe, for she had passed her seventh birthday and was as wise and irrepressible as the only child of a loving father and mother usually becomes. Her parents and relations continued to allude to her as "the baby," and they might still be doing so had not certain of her deeds checked them, and compelled them to restrict themselves to her rightful name, which was Beatrice, and to her nickname, which was Trixy. Trif was Trixy's mother, and did not entirely approve of the name by which she was oftenest addressed, for "Trif" seemed to imply some thing trifling, while the real Trif was a young matron as handsome and proud as Diana, and as good and earnest as the saintly Roman woman Tryphosa, for whom she was named. (All this must be true, because Trif shusband, Phil Highwood, said so and continues to say it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
