Book Description
Excerpt from The Book of Knight and Barbara: Being a Series of Stories Told to Children California. These drew illustrative pictures, after their fashion; and from the multitude secured, Mrs. Maitland chose those which are here reproduced. The scenes in the stories were also subjected to the criticisms of children, and in many cases amended to meet their suggestions. Several of the stories, espe cially the classical travesties, would not be printed were it not for the children's drawings. These pic tures made by the children have been found to interest deeply other children, a fact which gives them a certain value as original documents in the study of the working of the child-mind. At the end of the volume are added a few true stories, mostly of birds and of beasts, told to a different audience. With these are a few drawings by Uni versity students, which are intended to assist the imagination of child-readers. The Story of Bob, and the stories of Senor Alcatraz, the Little Blue Fox, and How the Red Fox went Hunting are reprinted, by the courtesy of Dr. William Jay Youmans, from Appletons' Popular Science Monthly, and How the Commander Sailed, from the Paci fic Monthly, by the courtesy of Mr. W. Bittle Wells. The indebtedness of the author to Mrs. Maitland and to Miss Hawley is indicated above. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
