The King of the
Golden River is one of these.... Its lessons are not obtruded;
the reader is really not explicitly conscious of them at
all.--_Introduction._

STORIES FROM THE ARABIAN NIGHTS.
Houghton. .60
From centuries and peoples almost as different from those we know
as the North and the South Poles are far apart, through the
overthrows of dynasties and the movements of whole races of men,
by the work of Arabian scholars when printing was unknown, and by
the labors of Europeans almost in our own day, these stories have
survived to transport us into a world of splendor and
magic.--_Introduction._
A carefully edited selection of thirteen of these famous tales, with
which, of course, every child should be familiar.
