Thousands of parents and educators have eagerly sought and read this book. It has been reprinted many times. Its message is vital to all parents. "The Little Engine That Could." A story of unfailing interest and delight to children--and grownups, too. This complimentary copy is a miniature of eight actual pages, with pictures in colors, from 'YBAKHOUSE The Christmas Gift Supreme --a gift that will bring happiness every day in the year. My BOOK HOUSE is the idea of a mother--Olive Beaupre Miller. This idea is, that the books of childhood should arouse a desire for good literature--a taste for the reading that makes truly great men and women. My BOOK HOUSE is this mother's selection of funda- mental stories and verse for children, beautifully illus- trated and printed in six volumes. Mrs. Miller's wide selection, wise elimination and care- ful grading give the child just the material he needs at each step of his progress. It helps to develop sound ethical standards. There are other books which provide simply knowledge, still others merely entertainment. But My BOOK HOUSE adds to knowledge and enter- tainment, culture and character.
