CHAPTER I
THE HAY-LOFT
I HAVE been asked to tell you about the back of the north wind.
An old Greek writer mentions a people who lived there, and were
so comfortable that they could not bear it any longer, and
drowned themselves. My story is not the same as his. I do not
think Herodotus had got the right account of the place. I am
going to tell you how it fared with a boy who went there.
He lived in a low room over a coach-house; and that was not
by any means at t . . .
