Five plays about children, for children to play--Hansel and Gretel, The Wishing Well, The Ring of Salt, The Moon Dream, and Puck in Petticoats. Each is accompanied by stage directions, property plots and other helpful suggestions for acting. Some of the plays take but twenty minutes, others as long as an hour to produce, and every one of the five are clever.

They are easily, effectively staged--just the sort that girls like to play and that enthusiastic audiences heartily enjoy.
