Excerpt from Little Folks' Christmas Stories and PlaysThe young reader's enjoyment is enhanced and his interest quickened if he can begin to read his book without the aid of an interpreter. Therefore the stories and poems in this volume are arranged in two groups: Part I includes those selections which are simple enough in theme and form to be read by the child, Part II is made up of more complex stories and poems, which the story-teller may read aloud or relate to the young listener.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
