  6. It seems like Constance has the life of the most pampered and beloved pet. It mirrors Henry's with the exception that once he gets up he jumps into bed to wake up anyone in any room who is still sleeping.

    The remainder of the routine is the same.

    Three cheers for you Constance!

    This illustration is wonderful and heartwarming!

  11. Greetings from the Borders region of Scotland. I was delighted to check on the routine of my darling namesake! My husband looked over my shoulder and said, 'that's rather Posy Simmonds like'. Now this is a lady we heard speak at the Edinburgh International Literary Festival yesterday; she is a near saint as an illustrator to our generation and my husband meant this as the highest of accolades!
