Helppppp
What word can be in the blank space?
The child was fairly eating me up with her cold, crying eyes, and
no expression to her face whatever. She did not move and seemed, inwardly, quiet; an unusually attractive little thing, and as strong as a_____in appearance. But her face was red, she was breathing rapidly, and I realized that she had a high fever. She had a longer blonde hair ... one of those pictures of children often reproduced in advertising leaflets and the photogravure sections of theSunday papers.
