The story is written with no other thought than to have constantly in mind what the Ojibwa child believes about the events of his every-day life as given in the story. And the following incidents are taken directly from the common life of the tribe.
A.E. Jenks.
And now comes Dr. Jenks with a story of a Red Child, in which he displays deep insight into Indian character, and describes the Red Child as that interesting person might have described himself in his own wigwam and to his own grandchildren in the evening of his life. May many White Children read the story and learn therein of our passing race.
W.J. McGee.
This mysterious tale of Ji-shib the Chippewa, and A-mi-kons the little beaver, his totem, follows Indian life from birth to early manhood. Dr. Jenks has prepared many small accompanying sketches.

Narratives of the early days of some little school-girls of long ago, related by themselves. Charmingly illustrated in color; the costumes those of the period.
My Sister's part in the Leicester School (about two-thirds) was purely her own; as it was (to the same quantity) in the Shakespeare Tales which bear my name. I wrote only the Witch Aunt, the First Going to Church, and the final story about a little Indian Girl in a Ship.
