By Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows
"I want to find some travel or history books about the Channel Islands too. Is it really true that on a clear day, you can see the cars on the French coast roads? So it says in my Encyclopedia, but I bought it secondhand for 4 shillings and I don't trust it. There I also learned that Guernsey is 'roughly seven miles long and five miles wide, with a population of 42,000 inhabitants.' Strictly speaking, very informative, but I want to know more than that."
