This time the Sandman comes in person, and takes little Joyce, who
believes in him, to the wonderful land of Nod. There they procure pots
and pans from the pansy bed, a goose from the gooseberry bush, a chick
from the chickweed, corn from the cornflower, and eat on a box from
the boxwood hedge. They have almost as many adventures as Alice in
Wonderland.

THE SANDMAN:
HIS ANIMAL STORIES.
THE SANDMAN:
HIS KITTYCAT STORIES.
THE SANDMAN:
HIS BUNNY STORIES.
THE SANDMAN:
HIS PUPPY STORIES.
“They are written in a style that will appeal most strongly to
children, and the promise of a Sandman story before retiring will be
found an adequate relief to many a tired mother. The simplicity of the
stories and the fascinating manner in which they are written make them
an excellent night cap for the youngster who is easily excited into
wakefulness, for the Sandman stories never frighten the kiddie.”
—_The Pittsburgh Leader._

THE SANDMAN:
HIS INDIAN STORIES.
The Indian tales for this Celebrated Series of Children’s Bedtime
Stories have been written by a man who has Indian blood, who spent
years of his life among the Redmen, in one of the tribes of which he
is an honored member, and who is an expert interpreter of the Indian
viewpoint and a practised authority on Indians as well as a master
teller of tales.
By MAE V. LEBERT
THE SANDMAN:
HIS JAPANESE STORIES.
“Miss LeBert creditably carries on the series that Page has made famous
over a period of years. She has grasped finely the spirit of Japan and
its legends, and in turn sets down on paper delicate, fragile bits of
beauty. A charming book for any boy or girl.”
—_Ohio State Journal._
