HAPPY DAYS
BY
A.A. MILNE
NEW YORK GEORGE H. DORAN COMPANY
FOREWORD
This book is made up from my contributions to Punch—a casual selection from the four hundred or so which have appeared in the last nine years. It is offered to the American public as a sample of that Punch humour (and perhaps, therefore, British humour) which Americans so often profess not to understand. According to whether they like it or do not like it, I hope they will consider it a representative or an unrepresentative sample.
