Readers of the Pepper books kept asking for the stories Polly was always telling, so in 1899 the author wrote them down. Polly comforts tearful Phronsie in Mamsie’s big rocking-chair with tales of a little white chicken determined to get into Susan’s playhouse, Princess Esmeralda’s ball, a circus, the little tin soldiers, Mr. Father Kangaroo and the mince-pie boy.
