Description:  <\/span>A choice collection of stories for the preschool child, carefully selected, adapted, and arranged by two veteran kindergarten teachers. Includes nature stories, holiday stories, fairy tales and fable, as well as stories of home life. Emphasis is placed on fanciful tales for their value in the training of the imagination and on cumulative tales for developing a child’s sense of humor and appealing to his instinctive love of rhyme and jingle.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
