Book Description
'Child-Life in Japan and Japanese Child Stories' is a book written about Japanese children and their habits based on first-hand observations by the author. She wrote it with the following intent in mind: "... that young folks who see and handle so often Japanese objects, but who find books of travels thither too long and dull for their reading, might catch a glimpse of the spirit that pervades life in the 'Land of the Rising Sun.'"

Book Description
Excerpt from Child-Life in Japan and Japanese Child Stories Over a quarter of a century ago, while engaged in introducing the American public school system into Japan, I became acquainted in Tokio with Mrs. Matilda Chaplin Ayrton, the author of "Child-Life in Japan." This highly accomplished lady was a graduate of Edinburgh University, and had obtained the degrees of Bachelor of Letters and Bachelor of Sciences, besides studying medicine in Paris. She had married Professor William Edward Ayrton, the electric engineer and inventor, then connected with the Imperial College of Engineering of Japan, and since president of the Institute of Electric Engineers in London. She took a keen interest in the Japanese people and never wearied of studying them and their beautiful country. With my sister, she made excursions to some of the many famous places in the wonderful city of Tokio. When her own little daughter, born among the camellias and chrysanthemums, grew up under her Japanese nurse, Mrs. Ayrton became more and more interested in the home life of the Japanese and in the pictures and stories which delighted the children of the Mikado's Empire. After her return to England, in 1879, she wrote this book. In the original work, the money and distances, the comparisons and illustrations, were naturally English, and not American.

Book Description
This book will give you a better understanding of the self-described Japanese games than the mostly forgotten Western games to which they are compared. Written by a British woman then adapted for reading by American children at the turn into the 20th century, this book will introduce the reader to dress, play, stories, and customs of Japanese children. It highlights without condescension the substantial skills required to play games of memorized poetry and play-war.
