‘Your grandmother,’ she... «A Hat Full of Sky»
Sicilian_orange4 октября 2013‘Your grandmother,’ she said, ‘did she wear a hat?’ ‘What? Oh… not usually,’ said Tiffany, still thinking about the big show. ‘She used to wear an old sack as a kind of bonnet when the weather was really bad. She said hats only blow away up on the hill.’ ‘She made the sky her hat, then,’ said Granny Weatherwax. ‘And did she wear a coat?’ ‘Hah, all the shepherds used to say that if you saw Granny Aching in a coat it’d mean it was blowing rocks!’ said Tiffany proudly. Then she made the wind her coat, too,’ said Granny Weatherwax. ‘It’s a skill. Rain don’t fall on a witch if she doesn’t want it to, although personally I prefer to get wet and be thankful.’ ‘Thankful for what?’ said Tiffany. ‘That I’ll get dry later.’
