The Story Hour.
Houghton. 1.00
These fourteen little stories include some about children and some
about animals. They are just the sort of narratives that small folks
love, and are designed for retelling in the kindergarten and home.
There are, in addition, three adaptations of well-known tales:
Moufflou, Benjy in Beastland, and The Porcelain Stove, and a poem by
Mrs. Wiggin.
