Reading Notes: Goblins, Part B

Father and Son, Daughter and Mother - This story really stuck out to me! It was so sad, not only that the first husband and father died, but then the fate of the mother and daughter. In my story, I'd like to write more of how the mother and daughter felt married to the son and father. It must have been tough for them to be put in such a position. I think the father and son were pretty foolish to just go by the foot size.
