There's love, sweet love, for one and all-- For love is best for great and small.

Keep thou an open door between thy child's life and thine own.

All the world is happy when Santa Claus comes.

Greatness is not always largeness.

Tis the mind must guide the hand.

You better watch out You better not cry Better not pout I'm telling you why Santa Claus is coming to town

Children delight in folk-tale and fairy lore, but the very little child loves best the story which mirrors the familiar. And it is for him, and for the mother who is striving in this age of profusion to guard the innate simplicity of her child's nature, that I have written my little stories.
