On the analogy of the famous apple,—“there ain’t going to be no”preface, “not nohow.” Children do not read prefaces, so anything of aprefatory nature that might interest them is put at the beginning ofchapter one.
As for the grown-ups the story is not written for grown-ups, and ifthey want to know why it begins with such a gruesome first chapter,let them ask the children. Children like the horrors first and the endall bright. Many grown-ups like the tragedy at the end. But perhapsthe children are right and the grown-ups are standing on their heads.Besides they can skip the first chapter; it is only a prologue.
