"Tell me a story!" "Read to me now!"

How often have we all heard these earnest pleas! How often, too, have they been met with disappointment simply because we could not think of anything to tell or even anything to read!

There are children's story books in abundance on the market, but how few there are that can be read to children without some qualms of conscience.

It is to supply this lack that this little book has been prepared. The stories are simple, but true to life, and each is designed to impress some moral lesson.
