About this book
A collection of short stories for children, published in 1888. Some are "made up" stories and some are real-life accounts, all with the purpose of teaching -- a moral lesson, a Christian concept, or a bit of science or history. Presumably these were originally published in The Pansy, a magazine for children. --Summary by TriciaG Tune in section 2 by James McGranahan, 1877. Tune in section 32 by Philip P. Bliss, 1871.
