into the bands in which it had been creased before, binding it around
Peaches' head as Leslie had shown him, then with awkward fingers did his
best on a big bow. He crossed the room and picked up a mirror which he
held before her reciting: "Once a little kid named Peaches, swelled my
heart----"
Peaches took the mirror, studying the face intently.
