Sara Cone Bryant presents a selection of entertaining and fun
stories for parents to read to young children, many with morals and
memorable conclusions. Drawing her selection from traditional folk
tales and her own imagination, Bryant offers a well-rounded and
impressive set of stories perfect for bedtime. This book's
introduction takes the form of a storytelling guide; the parent is
told how to properly read a children's story, what to emphasize and
how to narrate the dialog, so that the child's attention doesn't
wander and they gain the greatest benefit from the telling. Many
classics are recognizably adapted for this volume, such as The
Gingerbread Man and David and Goliath. Other stories evoke country
traditions, with farm animals and adventures a frequent theme. We
also witness stories that draw upon the old legends of past
kingdoms and cultures, lending an exotic and interesting flair to
the collection. In all, this book offers parents and children
varied and rewarding reading experience.

Pook Press celebrates the great Golden Age of Illustration in
children's literature. Many of the earliest children's books,
particularly those dating back to the 1850s and before, are now
extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook Press are working
to republish these classic works in affordable, high quality,
colour editions, using the original text and artwork so these works
can delight another generation of children. About the Illustrator:
Honor Charlotte Appleton (1879-1951) was known for her delicate
watercolour illustrations influenced by Kate Greenaway and Arthur
Rackham. She illustrated more than 100 children's books during her
career including Alice in Wonderland, Aladdin, and Black Beauty but
it was for her editions of Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales
and her illustrations of Josephine in H. C. Craddock's series that
she received most universal acclaim.

to introduce here, and what are her titles to merit?
