Inside
the
hedge
they
came
upon
row
after
row
of
large
and
handsome
plants
with
broad
leaves
gracefully
curving
until
their
points
nearly
reached
the
ground
.
In
the
center
of
each
plant
grew
a
daintily
dressed
Mangaboo
,
for
the
clothing
of
all
these
creatures
grew
upon
them
and
was
attached
to
their
bodies
.
The
growing
Mangaboos
were
of
all
sizes
,
from
the
blossom
that
had
just
turned
into
a
wee
baby
to
the
full
-
grown
and
almost
ripe
man
or
woman
.
On
some
of
the
bushes
might
be
seen
a
bud
,
a
blossom
,
a
baby
,
a
half
-
grown
person
and
a
ripe
one
;
but
even
those
ready
to
pluck
were
motionless
and
silent
,
as
if
devoid
of
life
.
This
sight
explained
to
Dorothy
why
she
had
seen
no
children
among
the
Mangaboos
,
a
thing
she
had
until
now
been
unable
to
account
for
.
"
Our
people
do
not
acquire
their
real
life
until
they
leave
their
bushes
,
"
said
the
Prince
.
"
You
will
notice
they
are
all
attached
to
the
plants
by
the
soles
of
their
feet
,
and
when
they
are
quite
ripe
they
are
easily
separated
from
the
stems
and
at
once
attain
the
powers
of
motion
and
speech
.
So
while
they
grow
they
cannot
be
said
to
really
live
,
and
they
must
be
picked
before
they
can
become
good
citizens
.
"
"
How
long
do
you
live
,
after
you
are
picked
?
"
asked
Dorothy
.
"
That
depends
upon
the
care
we
take
of
ourselves
,
"
he
replied
.
"
If
we
keep
cool
and
moist
,
and
meet
with
no
accidents
,
we
often
live
for
five
years
.
I
’
ve
been
picked
over
six
years
,
but
our
family
is
known
to
be
especially
long
lived
.
"
"
Do
you
eat
?
"
asked
the
boy
.
"
Eat
!
No
,
indeed
.
We
are
quite
solid
inside
our
bodies
,
and
have
no
need
to
eat
,
any
more
than
does
a
potato
.
"
"
But
the
potatoes
sometimes
sprout
,
"
said
Zeb
.
"
And
sometimes
we
do
,
"
answered
the
Prince
;
"
but
that
is
considered
a
great
misfortune
,
for
then
we
must
be
planted
at
once
.
"
