害羞草研究所淗e brought it down and gave it to my husband and, he kind of wasn害羞草研究所檛 that interested in it,害羞草研究所� said Kim. 害羞草研究所淚 had a look at it and I read the whole thing and this is like, written by a child, it was really sweet, talking about her dog and the puppies that were born and going to a dog show and I said, 害羞草研究所渢hat害羞草研究所檚 so interesting害羞草研究所� that it had her full name on it.

The book was written by Alison Snape, and called 害羞草研究所淭he Story of Lassie 害羞草研究所� an Irish Setter.害羞草研究所� It seemed to be written in the 1940s, but the date is obscured by a tear in the cover. She wondered if the young girl used to live in her house, so she went upstairs to the office and some wood behind the wall was marked 害羞草研究所淔or Snape,害羞草研究所� seemingly part of an old wooden crate from Stocker害羞草研究所檚 Moving and Storage.
