LITTLE FOLKS IN HISTORY (In four books) By DOROTHY DONNELL CALHOUN “Not many know the story of the boy leader of the children's crusade, Stephen of Cloys. The 'boy who stood on the burning deck’ is a little more familiar, and the story of Casabianca is finely told. Jacqueline, the bravest little maid of Holland, and Pocahontas share equal honors among the heroines whose deeds are recounted. The Little Queen of Scotland, Mary Stuart, and Edward VI, the little white King, are two of the royal babies told of; and Mozart, Audubon, Nightingale, James Watt and Helen Keller are the little folks who did great things.' -Leader-Republican, Gloversville, New York. LITTLE FOLKS OF THE BIBLE (In four books) By DOROTHY DONNELL CALHOUN These delightful stories differ from other Bible narratives in that they are not the tales of great deeds or of great heroes of the Bible, but of real children for real children to read. The old characters come before us like modern young people, and the scenes in which they played a part are made vivid by descriptions and incidental allusions possible only to an accomplished writer. “Little Folks of the Bible presents the familiar child characters of the book. The stories are told in appropriate tone. The entire collection may be warmly commended.”—The New York Evening Post.
