From 8-year old Hilda’s diary:
This is Thursday and every Thursday our drawing teacher comes into our classes at school. He has a beard. His name is Mr. Marc. He doesn’t really teach us anything, he just walks from desk to desk and tells us why he doesn’t like our pictures. But today he stopped and looked at what I painted and said that he liked mine. He said, “This is a very nice cow, but why did you paint her green?” So I didn’t tell him that it was a horse.
