Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Short Stories for Short People
Theories and elucidations advanced by wise com mentators. It would have been held to express systematically the growth of a sin or of a suspicion or of a superstition, or of any one of half a dozen other things of which the author never dreamed. That is the test of a fantasy-piece, that it has something for all; it rouses a whole swarm of analogies and suggestions, yielding a moral when the author sought only innocent fun and the delights of narration. The lover of childhood and the lover of creative imagination may alike find pleasure in this book, and it should have ten thousand readers.
