AbstractHistoryArchive Description
This work consists of 7 sections of verse, each titled by a day of the week. On Monday, Judy doesn't like Mondays because she can't do the things she wants to do. On Tuesdays, she visits the cook, reads and watches Hop Lee the kind 'chinaman' who brings the fruit and vegetables. Wednesday is the day that Miss Grimwade comes to the house to give Judy lessons in geography, history and 'sums'. On Thursday, Judy gets dressed up and goes visiting with her mother. Friday is shopping day with Mummy. Judy's favourite day is Saturday, when Priscilla comes to play and they play at being pirates, then Judy helps her father in the garden. On Sundays, the family goes to church and Judy observes the congregation, thinks about her 'wickedness' and resolves to do better in the following week.
