From the dustjacket:
Retells the very funny story of a peculiar gentleman who hires a spirited country girl and proceeds to instruct her in the use of special names for the most ordinary objects: his house, his clothes, his cat and even his fire.
So obediently and quickly does she master the tongue-twisting vocabulary that in the direst of emergencies the maid leaves little doubt as to who is Master of All Masters. A delight for storytellers.
