About This Book

A sequence of short, child-centered episodes follows a young boy during a summer vacation as he learns practical skills and moral lessons through everyday adventures. After a doctor's advice to rest his eyes, he explores fields and rocks with a friend, gathers botanical specimens, discovers a chrysalis mistaken for a seed, and stores curiosities in a homemade museum. Other episodes depict errands in town, simple experiments and crafts, small legal and social dilemmas, and seaside excursions, all presented to encourage observation, ingenuity, responsibility, and thrift without imposing complex narrative structure.


TRANSCRIBER'S NOTES

1. Minor changes have been made to correct usage of punctuation; otherwise, every effort has been made to ensure that this etext is faithful to the original book.

2. The original Table of Contents incorrectly listed the first chapter as beginning on page 11; this has been corrected to reflect the first page as page 9.

3. The footnote in the first chapter refers the reader to the Frontispiece; in fact, the Frontispiece refers to an event in seventh chapter. The Transcriber believes that the footnote should read "See page 23."
