THE LITTLE STRAWMAN BY CORA WORK HUNTER

Reading edition

With 6 illustrations in color by FRANCES BEEM 64 pages. 75 cents net

The Little Strawman suddenly finds himself alive when the wind blows a wisp of straw into a raspberry bush and caps it with a berry head. There is throughout the rhymed narrative the breezy call of the out-of-doors; the gurgling of brooks and the singing of birds unite with the sweet fragrance of clover bloom and violet bank. The imagination of the child is led out into varied channels, and a wholesome love for birds and flowers and animals is instilled.
