Author Description

Excerpt from The Child's Own Story Book: Or, Tales and Dialogues for the Nursery As a book for the nursery, I trust this little volume will be found a welcome and pleasant companion and if within its pa ges be, contained any lesson which may prove lastingly useful to only one little child, I shall not lose my reward. But it is my fervent hope, that not in the heart of one only, but of many little children, right and true feelings may be called up, and quickened by my humble efforts and that the seed thus sown, may bear ever lasting and heavenly fruit.
