About this book
The Story of Opal is subtitled The Journal of an Understanding Heart and is by Opal Stanley Whiteley. The preface says it seems worth while to set forth something of the child’s story undisclosed by the diary, and to attempt to weave together some impressions of the author. The contents list names chapters, among others, Of Taking-Egg Day, and the Remarkable Things that Befell thereon, and Of the Fall of the Great Tree, and the Funeral of Aristotle.
A journal entry says that the husband of Dear Love was making a chair for her, and that when the tools are not in use the tool-box has its lid down and is a seat to sit on. The journal text says that sometimes on rainy days Thomas Chatterton Jupiter Zeus is taken to visit Dear Love and they all sit on the tool-box.
