genre  \nas his classic The Snow Goose,whichin the ten years since its publicationhas proved not only one of the best-selling,but also one of the best-lovedbooks of our time.  \nThe Small Miracle tells of the adventuresof a little Italian boy whose donkey—hisfriend and assistant in earning a precariousliving—fell sick and seemed likely to die.But the child had faith,and was sure thatif only he could take his friend to thetomb of St.Francis,all would be well.He ried and it seemed impossible;buthe refused to lose his faith,and after ajourney to Rome and an interview withthe Pope,the miracle occurred.  \nWritten with the simplicity and sin-cerity that made The Snow Goose somoving,The Small Miracle has real andmemorable charm.  \nWith drawings byEDGAR NORFIELD  \n# THE SMALL

characters exist only in the im-agination of the author and are not basedupon any real persons.They are delineatedas they are for purely literary reasons.  \nAPPROACHING Assisi via the chalky,dusty roadthat twists its way up Monte Subasio,nowrevealing,now concealing the exquisite little town,as it winds its way through olive and cypress groves,you eventually reach a division where your choicelies between an upper and a lower route.  \nIf you select the latter,you soon find yourselfentering Assisi through the twelfth-century archwayof the denticulated door of St.Francis.But if,seduced by the clear air,the wish to mount evencloser to the canopy of blue Italian sky and exposestill more of the delectable view of the rich Um-brian valley below,you choose the upper way,youand your vehicle eventually become inextricably  \nentangled in the welter of humanity,oxen,goats,bawling calves,mules,fowl,children,pigs,boothsand carts gathered at the market place outside thewalls.  \nIt is here you would be most likely to encounterPepino,with his donkey Violetta,hard at work,turning his hand to anything whereby a small boyand a strong,willing beast of burden could win forthemselves the crumpled ten and twenty lira notesneeded to buy food and pay for lodging in the barnof Niccolo the stableman.  \nPepino and Violetta were everything to eachother.They were a familiar sight about Assisi andits immediate environs—the thin brown boy,ragged and barefooted,with the enormous darkeyes,large ears,and close-cropped,upstanding hair,and the dust-coloured litle donkey with the MonaLisa smile.  \nPepino was ten years old and an orphan,hisfather,mother and near relatives having been killed","cbCaipFg1WBWfI2W","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaipFg1WBWfI2W","pdf",1884042,54,"English","# THE SMALL MIRACLE\n## Pepino and Violetta in Assisi\n## The journey to St.
