TO THE BOYS AND GIRLS
Dear Boys and Girls:
Do you like fairy stories?
You do not need to tell us.
We know you like them.
So we are going to give you some to read.
You may have heard some of these stories before, but not many of them.
Some have come from far across the sea, and some have come from our own country.
Mothers have told them to their children again and again, and children have never been tired of them.
We think you will like them, too.
