Question

Read the excerpt from The Secret Garden:

"There's not a single lump here!" she said at last. "There's not a lump as big as a pin - except backbone lumps, and you can only feel them because you're thin. I've got backbone lumps myself, and they used to stick out as much as yours do, until I began to get fatter, and I am not fat enough yet to hide them."
