Hi Ruairidh
A wonderful story about the child. Do that today here and you would face endless persecution for touching and be booted out of teaching for sure. And they wonder why men are reluctant to take up the job.
Nevertheless I am curious about the use of words. The first word is now standard English. Here a very imaginitive and observant child may have managed the bearded adjective. But in place of Wizard something far more base would have been typical use. Had the class been studying anything to imprint the word Wizard?
