They were of many different kinds; but he was only familiar with the wild geese, who came flying in two long lines, which met at an angle.

Brava Clementine! Il libro l’ho sempre trovato noiosissimo e non sono mai riuscita a leggerlo tutto… ma la tua illustrazione è meravigliosa. A.
Grazie Sandra! Sono d’accordo che è difficile leggerlo. Ma la descrizione dei paesaggi gli fa meravigliosi!
