A little girl is missing.
A little girl—a sort-of ward of ours—had an interest in the Lucky Pup Mine.
A little golf, but that just frustrates me and cost money.
A little higher, and he'd be able to tell what color underwear she wore.
A little late to matter, Kiera said with a shrug.
A little man did all the talking and introductions.
A little memory work might be required, but anyone could count from nineteen to twenty.
A little testy today, aren't we?
A little while and we'll be where no one will find us as we play our games.
A little, why don't we go in and I'll make us some coffee?
A vamp who could track Others was an invaluable treasure, especially if Charles could also track the sneaky little Watchers.
After all she'd been through lately, she couldn't help feeling a little wary.
Alex had directed the little he said to her only.
Alex had lost his parents and had to quit college to raise his little sister.
Alex selected a clean towel from the things he had brought to the barn and waited a little longer.
All we were trying to do is respond to a little girl's wishes and find out the identity of the skeleton she found.
And because some little snot-nose has a vivid imagination, or thinks it's fun to tell whoppers, I'm supposed to go traipsing off in some god-forsaken mine on the taxpayer's expense on a treasure hunt?
And from what – a little kiss?
And I've confided to poor Edith a little about Annie.
And remember those three little numbers; 911.
And there are 'teddy' guys, you know, guys who drool over those short little outfits that leave nothing to the imagination.
And what little they have promised they will not perform!
And yet, its little engine hummed along with a surprising lack of noise.
Annie was Howie's little sister.
Are the weeds getting a little high along the drive?
Are you blaming a little boy for what his mother did?
As I parked in my barn, the beautiful little girl I've dreamt about began to squirm and awaken.
As sweet as she is, I almost wish I'd given her something a little less lethal.
As the little Wizard turned to follow them he felt a hot breath against his cheek and heard a low, fierce growl.
Assume I never knew this underworld existed before a little over a week ago.
At first she thought he might have been a visitor of the other man in the room, but the family said he had asked for Alex, and had stayed with him for a little while.
At one point, she thought he cared for her a little.
Because if she did, she'd lose what little she had left.
Before they could comment, she rose, and putting a finger to her lips, whispered, "We mustn't let Claire know our little secret."
Besides, you've got too much on your minds— running for sheriff, little Martha leaving and all—you don't need to hear about the ghosts in my closet.
Both men felt the old man had probably killed him, but Westlake's brief disclosure was insufficient to pursue the matter and as both men were dead, there was little incentive to do so.
Boys, we're getting a little loud here.
But aren't you a little concerned about what people will say?
But every now and then there would be a little difference.
But first I need company and the affection of a sweet little friend.
But I'm too little to save Jonny.
But if the little bit I've got's not stopping me from trying to multiply it to something better, how can you be worried about this kid of yours?
But the gun is a little frightening, Dean said.
But then the little girl Martha came forward and changed everything before I had a chance.
But there was the little problem of the pack of cigarettes Martha clearly described as being with the bones in the Lucky Pup Mine.
But these sounds were hardly heard in comparison with the noise of the firing outside the town and attracted little attention from the inhabitants.
But this man, an enemy who had—up until now—wanted to kill her, left her feeling a little less alone.
But you need to pamper yourself a little.
Cade's tone was a little startled and a lot amused.
Can I have a little time?
Can you expand a little on that statement?
Can you hold lunch for a little bit?
Carmen had shown little interest in their financial status.
Come on and I'll show you around a little before I turn in.
Cynthia's little shriek of dismay caused Dean to turn.
Daniela.s little legs moved fast, and she was across the courtyard while Kris stared toward the room where Rhyn assumed his mate was.
David and Cynthia Dean had experienced little success in trying to secure a more formal arrangement for long term custody of Martha, managing only undocumented assignment as temporary foster parents.
Dean bit his lip, assuming the little woman was about to complain about Gladys Turnbull's late night writing, but she had other concerns.
Dean considered calling the City of Ouray Police but realized they too could be of little help unless Shipton did something against the law.
Dean could do little more than put his arm around her.
Dean dreamed of white-dressed hookers smiling and calling to a line of seven little miners who looked suspiciously like Snow White's benefactors.
Dean guessed no male juror would even bother listening to the testimony before giving her anything her little heart desired.
Dean poked about while she was gone, but the newly moved-in apartment had little in the way of personal objects.
Dean's suggestion of placing the little fellow out of doors in the trash was overruled by his more compassionate wife who pointed out the resulting reduced chances of January survival.
Death … you used to take care of the really old angels, and Gabe visited the little ones all the time.
Debbie Woolrich, age nine, remains in the wind but there's little hope she's alive.
Deidre drank more of the brandy, until it stopped burning her throat, and the world grew a little less sharp around the edges.
Deidre, for what little this is worth, I apologize for not being good enough or smart enough or quick enough to prevent the inevitable.
Despite telling her he wouldn.t, he dropped into her thoughts to feel a little closer to her and was surprised to find she was packing to leave.
Destiny was a little lady, waiting until he came into the kitchen before plowing into him.
Destiny's little fingers wiggled on Carmen's ribs and she laughed.
Do nothing for the time being but perhaps consider instituting a little misdirection in the future.
Does that mean we can't indulge in a little innocent affection now and then?
Does your boozing it up make this little meeting unofficial?
Dropping off this little package was accomplished with no regret as she wouldn't cease screaming her head off keeping my nerves on edge the entire time we were together.
Evelyn had little regret for her actions in life, even those she probably should have.
Even she would have had trouble working with something so little, but his big hands dispensed with the job in short order.
Every time he lashes out at you and gets his nails clipped in the process, it erases a little more of that fear.
Everyone tried a little conciliation.
Fear fluttered through her, and her gaze flew to Kris, whom she trusted little more than his sadistic brother.
Finally, Howie was able to connect with a recently abducted little girl in Alabama.
First I must lay my little darling to rest.
For everything... for how I handled the police-guy, for making Julie stay just a little bit longer, for chasing off Martha and Quinn...
Forget this little exercise ever happened; it won't be repeated.
Fortunately the day presented little of our precise criteria.
Fred followed but there was little time for conversation.
Fred gave the woman a petulant little boy look but then smiled and patted her arm.
From that vantage point, if you had tried to look fifty years ahead to what the world would be like in the year 2500 BC, you would have expected very little change.
From what little she knew about etiquette, she was occupying the seat of the lady of the house.
Gabriel suspected the Dark One wasn't going to let his little human out of Hell, especially not to see her former mate.
Glancing around to make sure Destiny was still safely in the little pen inside the barn, she pulled the phone from its holster on her side and called Alex.
Going to the little girl's room.
Have you learned some control of that demon power, little brother?
Having been raised to serve his dhjan within the boundaries imposed on him, Ne'Rin would have little patience with one who trounced the boundaries that should have been emplaced upon her.
He also had little sleep, as much from partying with the temporarily affluent Mrs. Worthington as concern over Martha's cross country flight from the law.
He asked, just to toss a little more chum in the water, "What happened to your mother?"
He cast his eyes downward, away from the brightness, and saw little except the ground in front of him.
He continued to grope his way forward until the first turn in the tunnel closed off what little light spilled in from the entrance.
He cured my human side, brought the deity side back, and joined our souls, she replied a little too quickly.
He dreamed of bones and babies and lost little girls.
He felt sick to his stomach and wondered how Bianca had become so much a part of him in so little time.
He found himself lingering, wanting to feel a little less alone.
He glanced at his mother and colored a little.
He grinned, the expression creating little lines around his sparkling blue eyes.
He had a bottle in his hand and twisted the cork free with little effort.
He had little pity for humanity in general.
He had little time to redeem himself, and he kicked himself mentally for not walking into the room that would turn him into the Death he was supposed to be.
He hates your guts big time—your little wife, too.
He must have made quite an impression on little eighteen-year-old Jennifer.
He opened the windows, which did little to shed light into the stone room with its masculine, black décor.
He probably got an early start on his own sisters down on God's little acre.
He pulled out a fingernail clipper and began clipping his nails, sending little white crescents flying about the room.
He quickened his pace, having little reason to prolong the trip.
He remembered little about how to deal with humans and nothing of how to deal with their women.
He said little else, and her breathing soon fell into rhythm with his.
He slept little, continuing to regret his lack of action throughout the night.
He was a little resentful of the time she spent with the other boys.
He was a little while ago.
He was a man who said little, but felt a lot.
He was only a little more weather-beaten than when I saw him last.
He was quite an old little man and his head was long and entirely bald.
He was; maybe a little upset.
He wasn't going to give in until she ate a little crow.
He wished Andre had stuck around a little longer, so he could.ve asked him what to do.
He.d spent most his life in Hell and remembered little of the Immortal world.
He'd done what little he was willing to do to his own mate to keep her upset.
Heidi, Little Red Riding Hood – I wish you'd get your characters straight.
Hell has a library, and the librarian has been teaching me about the deities through these little video tutorial things.
Her gaze settled on the statue of Rhyn, whose large eyes held an ominous look too old for his chubby little face.
Her thoughts went to the prisoner, and she wondered if she'd see him again if she stayed a little longer.
Her unease grew as they reached a seedy neighborhood outside of Little Havana.
Here. This is a little something by way of thanks.
His little mortal had come after him.
His satellites--the senior clerk, a countinghouse clerk, a scullery maid, a cook, two old women, a little pageboy, the coachman, and various domestic serfs--were seeing him off.
Hopefully, he can handle a little bloodlust.
How could you let a little girl be alone with a convicted criminal long enough to be kidnapped?
How is my little fruit bat doing?
How long is this going to be your dirty little secret?
How much had he told Señor Medena - or how little?
However, if one designs to construct a dwelling-house, it behooves him to exercise a little Yankee shrewdness, lest after all he find himself in a workhouse, a labyrinth without a clue, a museum, an almshouse, a prison, or a splendid mausoleum instead.
Howie offered little and without seeing his facial reaction, I couldn't tell how he stood.
I almost plucked a little beauty from a nearby tent the other night as her parents partied with other campers several yards away.
I am alone in this house, with only a cat for company though he gives me little solace.
I answered with all the right words though I was not just a little annoyed.
I can't concentrate on my little darlings.
I can't imagine not seeing her or holding little Claire again.
I can't imagine trying to sleep with just a couple of little steel pegs hammered into the rock the only thing holding me from a couple of thousand foot drop!
I cared enough to make sure Darkyn's little fruit bat is okay.
I did a little arithmetic.
I don't know what I mean except I can't stop dreaming of little children, all hurt and bleeding and I don't want to see them because it hurts too much, but I can't block them out!
I drive the country roads, humming my tune, my new little pet safely in my hands.
I enjoyed it last September until I became bored; I even had a little friend, as I recall.
I eyed a sporty little number but Betsy, with a family in her radar, opted for a mid-sized compact.
I guess I'm even a little bit excited by the challenge.
I guess the evening was a little cold?
I had my fun kicking a little butt with the boys, but enough is enough—I have a business to run back home.
I had slept little as Jerome Jones' band played its brass near till dawn at The Gold Belt.
I hate those little trolls.
I just had dinner and the service was a little slow.
I just want to sit here a little while.
I kept seeing little Nick's face in the window when they left the house.
I know you get little enough as it is.
I know, and I guess I was deliberately a little evasive because I wanted you to learn to trust me.
I looked up Andy Gordon and found lots of pictures of his paintings, but no pictures of him, and very little information about him.
I managed to calm myself enough to relate what little I knew of what happened to the people with whom we'd both worked so closely.
I might need a little of that as well, but mostly I'm trying to track down a guy named Josh who worked in mining in Ouray back in the 1960's.
I never will understand how you could know so little about Fred.
I read all the weekly newspapers and there was no mention of any foul play, but this little ad caught my attention.
I should get rid of this and buy something a little more feminine.
I surely deserve the comfort of a little friend to sooth my troubled mind.
I thank my God that I too had you, if only for a little while.
I think he's carrying his ministry a little too far and he's already a married man.
I think I'll stay out for a little while.
I think you and I need to have a little sit-down.
I told her when I returned from my preparations in the cabin I'd better find my little angle quiet or she could watch her mother die before her eyes.
I tried to shush her to little avail.
I volunteered to mind the store, so to speak, at least for appearance's sake though there was little to do.
I want to stop down and see Jake Weller about Martha's bony little problem.
I was a little surprised at the invitation.
I was born on June 27, 1880, in Tuscumbia, a little town of northern Alabama.
I.ll come back in a little bit.
I.m impressed, little sis.
I'd guess she left home quite young, perhaps as a mid-teenager, with little or no dough.
I'd love to have a little baby.
I'd never drive with my own plates when I'm on the prowl for little people.
I'll be back in a little while, sweetheart.
I'll be fine after we rest for a little bit.
I'll miss her so as she missed her mother whom I was forced to lay to rest before the little lovely was mine.
I'll prepare little Natalie.
I'll try my luck closer to the seashore where the scenery is as fair as the little ones I seek.
I'm a little busy with real law enforcement.
I'm a little tired of making other people's decisions for them.
I'm getting my shit together, little by little.
I'm getting to know my guy a little more each day.
I'm on the road once more with only my memory of sweet little Marcia for company.
I'm trying to get everything caught up so I can spend a little time with Claudette.
I've checked on your little human almost every day to ensure what I planned for her was not altered by Darkyn's bloodlust.
I've chosen the sea shore as the final resting place for my little beauty.
I've got a little ranch in Texas.
I've got to bone up on the Reverend Martin and his little woman.
If Dean had given any thought to how that statement sounded before he opened his big fat mouth, he would have practiced a little restraint and kept it shut.
If he could hit a little white ball, he'd be a legend in the 'hood!
If he did switch them and his little gag came to light, it wouldn't only cost him the election; it would cost him his whole career.
If I had paid more attention to her and spent a little less time out on the range, she might be alive today.
If nothing else, you know he's safe, and so are the little humans.
If the old man was going to sulk, Dean thought, might as well get it out in the open and allow him to vent a little steam.
If you have a problem, just wait a little while and ask Annie yourself.
If you tell me every little thing you know or even suspect, I'll just drive away and let you walk down the lane to one of those farm houses we passed.
If you're concerned my little project might impact your security, don't be alarmed.
In the end, our fundamental challenge is to become better individuals, and technology offers little help on that front; it is up to each one of us to solve that for ourselves.
Instead, he reviewed what little he'd learned from Darkyn about the deals Deidre made and the issue of his death-dealers.
It did sound as if the Dawkins boys' temporary peace had come to an end, but Dean paid little heed to the raised voices.
It does sound a little eccentric, doesn't it?
It gave her a little bit of peace, knowing she wasn't solely at the mercy of the outlaw.
It got me thinking about spreading around the little bit you've got.
It twisted its odd little face to look at her and sniffed at her arm with its small trunk.
It was a good, perfect little life, so much more than she ever expected, with the exception that her best friend in the universe-- Kiera-- might as well have been dead to her as far as Romas and his clan were concerned.
It was a trying conversation—obvious this bundle of nerves had little experience talking to strangers.
It was comfortable, like a little cave where she could hide.
It was early in the season for the little fellows—they usually stayed outside until the cold weather coaxed them indoors.
It was going to be nice having nothing to do but enjoy their little family for the next two weeks.
It was hard to believe sweet little Sarah would be involved with anything so sinister.
It was like Connie to spend as little time on the telephone as possible.
It was like he had a check list of what parents were supposed to do, and he filled in all the little blocks—middle-class home, straight teeth, and a college education—figured that was the extent of his obligations to us.
It was probably silly of me to believe Jerome could find me, just from one little charge card transaction.
It's a dare, my little friend.
It's a little early, but twins tend to have their own schedule.
It's a little sordid and not undeserved, but I must say, it's plausible.
It's a shame I don't have a little princess to lay to rest along its pristine shore.
It's all a little scary but I helped by getting Howie to go to sleep.
It's not every day your little brother turns 300K.
It's the little things that count.
It's time you gave someone else a chance, Cynthia said with a winning smile that offered him little room to maneuver.
It's too easy for kids to get liquor and too little else for them to do with their time.
It's utterly delightful with all the little school children scurrying about.
Jenn thought little of it at the time.
Jennifer, ignorant to the significance of the second entrance, expressed little interest in the opening.
Jule was happy to piss off the little green-eyed troll.
Just exercise a little caution, have patience, good equipment and lots of common sense.
Just her little fangs and the odd presence she found subtle but which apparently had a staggering effect on men.
Just say yes, you'll do anything for your friend, and I'll spare him a little longer.
Katie ignored the glare leveled on her while the woman cooed to the little boy.
Katie turned to stare at the little boy, who beamed a smile.
Kiera frowned, offended Ne'Rin thought so little of her, but not surprised.
Kiera liked her mind the way it was, liked roaming through the hallways and spending the mornings in training with the little boys out back.
Kiera was more than a little surprised when he raised his sword for what would have been a death blow.
Last night we ran a session on the little boy Betsy texted us about.
Late October was a little slow.
Let's try a little of this.
Little did he know that she wouldn't have left the ranch if her truck had been available.
Little did I know that while you were proposing to me, you were making plans to marry you're little saloon girl.
Little Eric lives with me and is the most important part of my life.
Little specks flashed before her eyes.
Little Tammy was so shy and inquisitive.
Little things like the way you took in that stupid cat.
Little time was spent on the snow.
Little was said of our clandestine activities of the past year as we simply enjoyed each other's company.
Look, I feel like a fool asking embarrassing questions, especially to someone as kind as you've been, but my wife and I promised a little girl we'd follow up on this.
Maria, ever smiling, joined them at the table, looking from one to the other as they spoke, understanding little but enjoying their company and thrilled with their praise.
Martha showed little interest and had said hardly a word.
Martha, the little girl who originally told us about them, described them differently from what Fitzgerald found.
Maybe a little noise would frighten the animal away.
Maybe a little time to yourself is a good idea.
Maybe he felt excluded - or maybe he simply needed a little encouragement.
Maybe he needs a little shock therapy to bring him back.
Maybe he's grown up and changed; God knows I have but back in the day, he was a little piss head, always getting in fights, picking on little kids.
Maybe her "hard to get" act wasn't working, so she was trying something a little more direct.
Maybe she could get a little rest while they waited.
Maybe they were both a little wrong... and a little right.
Maybe you are having a little water gain, but you look great.
My little passenger screamed from the back trunk at the sound of the gun shots but he was already dead.
My security system is top notch though I've had little need to utilize it.
My, you're being a regular nosy little detective, aren't you?
Natalie needed little encouragement - or maybe it was because Carmen was a little more relaxed and experienced.
Naw. I was a good little soldier, just like now.
Next came the little nose.
No need to cry on such a pretty day, little one.
No sound disturbed Howie and with Martha able to use her special hypnotic-like tone, little time was wasted inducing Howie's sleep state.
No, I don't have any of those little playthings, at least not yet.
None of your savage brothers would properly complement such a beautiful little treasure, Romas, the woman had said with gentle humor.
Not just, 'what are you going to be when you grow up, little girl?'
Not so brave anymore, are you, little girl.
Not so tough anymore, are you, little girl.
Not so tough now, are you, little girl?
Noticing that the light was growing dim he picked up his nine piglets, patted each one lovingly on its fat little head, and placed them carefully in his inside pocket.
Now let's try and locate your wife and the little girl.
Now that he's not, maybe I'll have to be a little more assertive.
Now that you're going to make a little money on those gold coins, added to what you took in on that Flotsam Electronics stock last June, maybe you should consider seeing the light and turning Republican.
Now that you've seen all this, get out and go home to sweet little what's-her name.
Now there is one less hunter to compete with me for the precious little ones.
Of course, the little red truck Dad had been drooling over.
Oh, ye of little faith, he said into her mind.
Oh, you little ones; be careful and don't talk to strangers!
On to rural America where the pickings are as fertile as the country side and there's always a trusting little soul willing to help a stranger.
Once inside, he found the child sleeping alone in her room; a little princess, he called her.
Once more something whistled, but this time quite close, swooping downwards like a little bird; a flame flashed in the middle of the street, something exploded, and the street was shrouded in smoke.
Once this ball gets rolling, it will speed up and, because of it, we will all wake up each morning with a little extra spring in our step and sparkle in our eye.
Once we have a sheriff's salary coming in, maybe we can add a little to their budget—until they get settled.
One counter was still standing next to the refrigerator tucked in a corner, and he swept the broken glass from the top to create a little work space.
One stupid little human is so much easier to kill than a few billion, and you chose duty instead.
Only his undercover agents contained such little information in his database.
Only little Lydia—who I understand was Jill-on-the-job and busted you for racing on her first day on duty.
Our last one was about guarding your little meat-cicle, right, Rhyn?
Our little Annie is a call girl!
Over their shoulder I saw Martha leave, with little Claire in her arms.
Princess Mary spent half of every day with little Nicholas, watching his lessons, teaching him Russian and music herself, and talking to Dessalles; the rest of the day she spent over her books, with her old nurse, or with "God's folk" who sometimes came by the back door to see her.
Sexy little fangs rested on her full lower lip.
She bent over and picked it up, discovering that it had a little white powder in the bottom.
She bristled, feeling as if she'd been sentenced to nothing more than a sewing circle for good little wives.
She cursed herself, aware she had accomplished little as far as advancing her rights but managed to draw the guaranteed attention of a man she was not certain she wanted to notice her.
She doesn't have to speak; just give you a little security.
She finished her breakfast with little conversation and saw Sarah and Tammy off to church.
She froze at the sight straight out of her vision—the little boy, Cody, spread-eagled in the street near the storm drain.
She gave me a couple of hundred bucks and left me at this bus station in this little town in Illinois—I don't remember the name.
She gazed up at him with angry eyes, and he stepped forward until her lush little body was pinned by his to the wall.
She had a little money to buy another place.
She headed for her room and a little rest before supper.
She knew very little of Hannah's friends, except they were all richer than sin.
She let out a little gasp and clutched her husband's hand.
She put the offending foot on the ground, tentatively applying a little weight, clamping a hand over her mouth to stop the cry of pain.
She reached into the cage and, after several foiled attempts, managed to capture one of the little bunnies.
She reached over, extending her hand to Cynthia, a wide smile on her face and a little kid look that said she was absolutely thrilled at the prospect of the upcoming trip.
She readied supper, careful to spend as little time in the ring of firelight as possible.
She reminded him of the little dolls his youngest sister had rejected several sun-cycles before.
She stood over me, giving me little choice though I dreaded the chore.
She tightened her grip around him, and he was amused to think of himself as any sort of comfort to anyone, let alone a little human like her.
She took the keys a little too quickly.
She volunteered very little and acted uneasy when asked, so they simply let it drop.
She walked the length of the wing and felt the feeling fade a little.
She was almost angry enough with Wynn to wish he'd stayed here just a little longer.
She was getting a little dehydrated, so they were speeding up the IV.
She was little more than half-done and already he thought it was too much?
She was the one who had become serious - and with little encouragement on his part.
She watched his retreating back and knew there would be little sleep for her tonight.
She'd known her friend to be a little arrogant, but this was something different.
She'll get up in a little bit.
She'll love it, with little Claire to play with.
She's a sharp little kid.
She's a sweet little girl.
She's a whoring little gold digger!
She's discovered quite a few annoying little powers of her own while you were gone.
She's just a little human.
She's such a little beauty I can hardly wait for the sun to set.
She's such a little fraidy cat but I shan't be able to keep her much longer.
She's this sexy little thing with beautiful eyes.
Sit down and I'll fill you in a little.
So you could show off those incredible legs of yours and I could watch your cute little boom-boom as I followed you, gliding around the rink.
Sometimes he has trouble sleeping and it takes very little noise to wake him.
Still feel a little tired.
Tamer had translated them, but they meant little to Gabriel.
That he'd grown a little more thoughtful and a little less reactive in how he handled adversity impressed Gabe.
That little girl did this?
That little thing is yours.
That ought to count for something, give us a little leeway.
That takes guts," Dean said, then added with a smile, "So goodie little Cynthia used to get her bum-bum paddled, huh?"
That, and the little matter of a cookie in the oven of love, which seemed to be taking a back seat in her ire.
That's how long my little prize remained with me until my darling succumbed to the trials and tribulations of life on the road, with me.
The air felt a little heavier around her as he spoke, compelling her attention to him.
The auction crowd could wait a little longer for his chauffeuring gig.
The best things might not be free, but they didn't always come in neat little packages, either.
The blue skirt and sweater were a little dressy for jail, but they'd no doubt give her some fashionable stripes to wear anyway.
The boots were a little tight and his legs weren't exactly locked together, but the old exhilaration of gliding over the snow returned immediately.
The correspondence was stiff and formal and said little, certainly nothing about the town of Ouray and was totally absent any tidbits of historical nature.
The entire town wouldn't have been more excited if the New Year's Rose Parade had come to little Ouray.
The family consisted of my father and mother, two older half-brothers, and, afterward, a little sister, Mildred.
The fascination little visitors were a rare in our neck of the woods.
The idea of teasing him with her body was a little frightening, but if that was what it took...
The images in her mind were of a little boy dying in the street, of Jake's death, of the deaths of many others.
The Keller homestead, where the family lived, was a few steps from our little rose-bower.
The larger bell was muffled and the little bells on the harness stuffed with paper.
The little boy followed her.
The little boy ran to her side.
The little boy was unconscious.
The little girl pushed the pages until satisfied, and Deidre didn't have the mental power to tell her it wasn't normal to start mid-book.
The little girl stood still to watch until the train had disappeared around a curve; then she turned to see where she was.
The little girl was adorable in a Shirley Temple kind of way.
The little girl, hair streaming, offered encouragement while skating backwards, one leg lifted high and beckoning unsuccessfully for Dean to follow.
The little man looked toward her and seemed as much surprised as she was.
The little man shook his bald head.
The little porch was hidden from view by a screen of yellow roses and Southern smilax.
The little princess went round the table with quick, short, swaying steps, her workbag on her arm, and gaily spreading out her dress sat down on a sofa near the silver samovar, as if all she was doing was a pleasure to herself and to all around her.
The little time gained was offset by the anger it aroused.
The man pulled up his mask enough for Howie to see a mustache and glasses but little else.
The monster across the hall was no option, and Jared was little better.
