Miss Polly Harrington entered her kitchen a little hurriedly this June morning. Miss Polly did not usually make hurried movements; she specially prided herself on her repose of manner. But to-day she was hurrying--actually hurrying. Nancy, washing dishes at the sink, looked up in surprise. Nancy had been working in Miss Polly's kitchen only two months, but already she knew that her mistress did not usually hurry.
Btelo English plays Pollyanna one sentence at a time, highlighting each word as it is spoken, with a tap on any word opening its dictionary card. The full text is also free at Project Gutenberg if you would rather read it straight through.
