About This Book

A collection of brief tales and verses for young readers that blends domestic vignettes, animal fables, and playful rhymes. Many pieces present self-contained scenes—children at play, pets and birds, seasonal and holiday moments—alongside short moral adaptations drawn from older folk stories. Entries range from whimsical nonsense to gentle instruction, and are arranged as easily read, often illustrated, items meant to be finished in a few minutes. The volume offers an accessible assortment of short, illustrated pieces designed to amuse, soothe, and convey simple lessons to a young audience.

TO MY VALENTINE

Dear, will you be mine,
My little Valentine?
I’ll meet you, and greet you,
And dress you up so fine!
A cooky for your hat,
And a pancake for your coat;
We’ll hollow out a pumpkin shell
And use it for a boat.
Dear, will you be mine,
My little Valentine?
I’ll meet you, and treat you,
And take you out to dine.
We’ll have gold and silver fish
In a gold and silver dish.
We’ll serve them up with diamond sauce
And then how they will shine!
