A World of Books
By Mrs. Edith Hickman
Little boys, everywhere, like
machines and trains; things that
move and do work, and travel
about.
“Choo Choo, Round the world”
by Charlotte Steiner, has a small
train full of happy boys and girls.
They travel around the world by
turning pages. Each page is a lap
of the journey. The train moves
along with each turn, and finally
the world tour is completed with
the boys and girls back home
again.
“The Little Red Engine Gets a
Name”— by Diana Ross is a story
especially pleasing to boys from
four to seven. In it a nameless
little engine performs a great
service and is given a beautiful
name. Few little boys would be
in-different to this story.
“Jamie, and the Tired Train”,
by Eileen Johnston, is about
Jamie, a real little mechanic. He
couldn’t bear to see any machine
broken down and neglected. He
went to work on Tootles, the tiny
train that belonged to his uncle’s
circus. When he begin it was in
the shed, all dusty and tired look
ing. Uncle George said she
wouldn’t go. But he didn’t know
what Jamie could do. to a worn
out little train. Jamie fixed it, so
it was a happy little train and
could run on a track. How he did
all this makes the story. It is il
lustrated throughout by Ova
Brain Edwards in three color pic
tures which add great interest.
“The Little Red Car” by Esther
K. Tucks is a “Once Upon a time”
story of a once busy little street
car that was afraid its best days
were over when the automobiles
and the big, fast street cars came.
No wonder the little red car was
sad. It is a charming picture story
for all ages. Very small children,
older children, even grandmother
and grandfather will want to find
out what happened to make a
happy ending for the story of the
little red car.
Most little girls, everywhere,
love kittens and helpless little
creatures; beautiful little poems
and soft lullabies.
“The Lady Bug, Who Couldn’t
Fly Home” by Catherine Evans,
deals with a real problem. Mrs.
Lady Bug settled on a pussy wil
low A storm came up, who will
help her get home? The bumble
bee, the grasshopper, the butter
fly, the beetle, the spider and the
measuring worm all fail. Old slow
moving snail gives her a ride
home on his back. It has four
color pictures and is told in pri
mary language for ages 5-8. There
are touches of humor in the little
story.
“Children’s books are import
ant.”
