About this book
Maria Edgeworth's stories for young readers come with a preface addressed to parents, who are told how hard it is to write for children. It quotes Dr. Johnson on Dr. Watts, explains that conversations and incidents were recorded in notes kept while children were being taught, and holds that justice, truth and humanity belong to every rank. The collection first appeared in 1796; this edition dates from 1891 and has illustrations by F. A. Fraser.
