Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chinese Boy and Girl NO thorough study of Chinese child life can be made until the wall of Chinese exclusiveness is broken down and the homes of the East are thrown open to the people of the West. Glimpses of that life however, are available, suffi cient in number and character to give a fairly good idea of what it must be. The playground is by no means always hidden, least of all when it is the street. The Chinese nurse brings her Chinese rhymes, stories and games into the foreigner's home for the amusement of its little ones. Chinese kindergarten methods and appliances have no superior in their ingenuity and their ability to interest, as well as instruct. In the matter of travelling shows and jugglers also, no country is better supplied, and these are chiefly for the entertainment of the little ones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chinese Boy and Girl No thorough study of Chinese child life can be made until the wall of Chinese exclusiveness is broken down and the homes of the East are thrown open to the people of the West. Glimpses of that life however, are available, sufficient in number and character to give a fairly good idea of what it must be. The playground is by no means always hidden, least of all when it is the street. The Chinese nurse brings her Chinese rhymes, stories and games into the foreigner's home for the amusement of its little ones. Chinese kindergarten methods and appliances have no superior in their ingenuity and their ability to interest, as well as instruct. In the matter of travelling shows and jugglers also, no country is better supplied, and these are chiefly for the entertainment of the little ones. To the careful observer of these different phases it becomes apparent that the Chinese child is well supplied with methods of exercise and amusement, also that he has much in common with the children of other lands. A large collection of toys shows many duplicates of those common in the West, and from the nursery rhymes of at least two out of the eighteen provinces it appears that the Chinese nursery is rich in Mother Goose. As a companion to the "Chinese Mother Goose," this book seeks to show that the same sunlight fills the homes of both East and West. If it also leads their far-away mates to look upon the Chinese Boy and Girl as real little folk, human like themselves, and thus think more kindly of them, its mission will have been accomplished.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Isaac Taylor Headland's Three Books That "Link East and West" Court Life in China, the Capital, Its Officials and People; The Chinese Boy and Girl; Chinese Mother Goose Rhymes It has also been thought that the Emperor has been misunderstood, being overestimated by some, and underestimated by others, and this because of his peculiar type of mind and charac ter. That he was unusual, no one will deny; that he was the originator of many Of China's greatest reform measures, is equally true; but that he lacked the power to execute what he con ceived, and the ability to select great statesmen to assist him, seems to have been his chief short coming.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mook: True Tales About a Chinese Boy and His Friends The main effect of this book is to impress one with the limitless possibilities for good, if proper help could be extended to the Chinese. At least that is the principal impression I have received after reading it in manuscript and again in proof. Much the same impression is likely to be made upon children. The tale is primarily intended for them, having been written from the point of view of children and dealing largely, though not wholly, with them.
