Usually it is done quite easily , as by your wearing too many garments or too few ; but if you are bumpy in awkward places or the only available tree is an odd shape , Peter does some things to you , and after that you fit . Once you fit , great care must be taken to go on fitting , and this , as Wendy was to discover to her delight , keeps a whole family in perfect condition . Wendy and Michael fitted their trees at the first try , but John had to be altered a little . After a few days ' practice they could go up and down as gaily as buckets in a well . And how ardently they grew to love their home under the ground ; especially Wendy . It consisted of one large room , as all houses should do , with a floor in which you could dig if you wanted to go fishing , and in this floor grew stout mushrooms of a charming colour , which were used as stools . A Never tree tried hard to grow in the centre of the room , but every morning they sawed the trunk through , level with the floor . By tea-time it was always about two feet high , and then they put a door on top of it , the whole thus becoming a table ; as soon as they cleared away , they sawed off the trunk again , and thus there was more room to play . There was an enormous fireplace which was in almost any part of the room where you cared to light it , and across this Wendy stretched strings , made of fibre , from which she suspended her washing . The bed was tilted against the wall by day , and let down at 6.30 , when it filled nearly half the room ; and all the boys except Michael slept in it , lying like sardines in a tin . There was a strict rule against turning round until one gave the signal , when all turned at once . Michael should have used it also ; but Wendy would have a baby , and he was the littlest , and you know what women are , and the short and the long of it is that he was hung up in a basket . It was rough and simple , and not unlike what baby bears would have made of an underground house in the same circumstances . But there was one recess in the wall , no larger than a bird-cage , which was the private apartment of Tinker Bell . It could be shut off from the rest of the home by a tiny curtain , which Tink , who was most fastidious , always kept drawn when dressing or undressing . No woman , however large , could have had a more exquisite boudoir and bedchamber combined . The couch , as she always called it , was a genuine Queen Mab , with club legs ; and she varied the bedspreads according to what fruit-blossom was in season . Her mirror was a Puss-in-boots , of which there are now only three , unchipped , known to the fairy dealers ; the wash-stand was Pie-crust and reversible , the chest of drawers an authentic Charming the Sixth , and the carpet and rugs of the best -LRB- the early -RRB- period of Margery and Robin . There was a chandelier from Tiddly winks for the look of the thing , but of course she lit the residence herself . Tink was very contemptuous of the rest of the house , as indeed was perhaps inevitable ; and her chamber , though beautiful , looked rather conceited , having the appearance of a nose permanently turned up .
I suppose it was all especially entrancing to XXXXX , because those rampagious boys of hers gave her so much to do .
