All children laugh when they read “The Circus Cotton-Tails” and how
the merry little bunnies diligently practice their circus tricks
while mischievous Bushy-Tail plays his tricks—whirling them off the
merry-go-round, and stealing Susan Cotton-Tail’s cookies. How the cookies
become alive and punish Bushy-Tail satisfies the little folk’s sense of
justice. And they delight in the description of the big circus parade,
and in the colored frontispiece and end sheets, to say nothing of the
many fascinating black and white illustrations.

JUST STORIES
BY
ANNIE KLINGENSMITH
Assistant Superintendent of Schools, Gary, Indiana
AUTHOR OF
“Household Stories” and “Norse Gods and Heroes”
In “Just Stories” Miss Klingensmith has selected and adapted from the
best in children’s literature more than thirty of the stories she
considers especially needed in work with children in the third and
fourth grades. They were originally printed as leaflets by Gary pupils
and aroused an enthusiasm that demanded their continued existence.
The illustrations are exceptionally good, and with the large, clear
type, good paper, and durable binding, “Just Stories” is an unusually
attractive book.
128 Pages—Illustrated
