THIS BOOK OF THE HAPPY SHOP IS DEDICATED TO HENRY JARRETT AND CAW CAW, HIS GOOD PLAY CROW
LONG time ago, the author of this book played the crow play as a little girl, and when she grew up, she gave the crow play to Henry Jarrett. Now, Henry Jarrett and Patten Beard give this play to many other children. In doing this, they have had help from The Delineator, The Youth’s Companion, The Pictorial Review, and The Mother’s Magazine. These have used some of the plays in this book.
