ONCE UPON A TIME
ANIMAL STORIES
By Carolyn Sherwin Bailey
Illustrated by Power O'Malley

Children never tire of
hearing about animals to
which human traits are at-
tributed. The animals in
these stories talk, work and
play much like human be-
ings and the results of their
activities convey valuable
moral lessons. Many old
time stories are embodied
in new and carefully edited
form, while many more of
the tales are wholly origi-
nal with Miss Bailey and
here published for the first
time. The book is printed
in large easy-to-read type
and illustrated with full-
page pictures.

By Carolyn Verhoeff

These delightful little stories, relating common experiences in a child's life, are tales that Miss Verhoeff told and retold to her kindergarten children in answer to their constant demand to "tell us more about Johnnie Jones." They are the adventures of a real, live boy, and appeal naturally to the small listeners, who recognize in them a reflection of incidents in their own little lives.
