A collection of short, loosely connected children's episodes follows three Trippertrot siblings as they leave home, travel, and return, encountering fanciful figures, talking animals, holiday celebrations, and everyday city workers; each chapter presents a brief adventure — meeting a little fairy, toy balloons, a grocery wagon, a postman, a milkman, a baby carriage, Christmas festivities, and even circus animals — told in playful, episodic scenes that mix gentle mischief, small moral lessons, and whimsical surprises.
The stories of the Three Little Trippertrots, though never before published, have been told to thousands of children, in a way, probably, that no tales have ever before been related. They were read over the telephone, nightly, to thousands of little folks, by means of the system operated by the N. J. Telephone Herald Company. The stories so delighted the children that the author has yielded to the request to issue them in book form.
