PREFACE
This collection of
stories has been gathered by several of Boston’s best
Kindergarteners and is used by them in their daily work.
It is expected that experienced teachers will adapt, lengthen,
shorten or re-make these stories, as the needs of their pupils
demand.
Thanks are due to the authors who have kindly permitted such use of
their work, also to the Christimi Register, American Kindergartener,
and Dayspring, for stories which first appeared in their columns,
Ginn & Co. kindly

Morning Talks.”

Men and Women.”
E. Steiger & Co. kindly allow the use of “Amy Stuart,”— “How the
Sparrows were Fed,” — “The Fairy in the Mirror,” and “The Echo,”
from their “Rhymes and Tales,” by Alma L. Kriege.
