Download or read book NEARLY BEDTIME FIVE SHORT STORIES FOR THE LITTLE ONES written by H. MARY WILSON, and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My motive in putting together these few short stories is twofold. I wish to help some elder sisters who have, like myself, occasionally found it difficult to keep the little ones happy when sleepiness is beginning to assert its claims—with pride in attendance to scorn any hint of weariness. For this reason the stories are quite short—of different lengths—and the time that they take in reading aloud is noted in the index. But I wish also, if I can, to add a little to the genuine happiness of that pleasant time when "big and little people" for a while are equals—before nurse comes to the door and says— "If you please, miss, it is the children's bedtime." Of course, when the summons does come, they all say "Good night" without any grumbling, and run away with bright faces, like my little Maggie, Dora, and Douglas. Kenley, 1888.
