The Everychild's Series is a library of fiction and dramatics, science and information, literature and art for children. Its contents include a wide range of subject matter, which will broaden the child's interest in plays and games, fairy-tales and fables, nature study and geography, useful arts and industries, biography and history, government and public service, myths and folk-lore, fine arts and literature.
This series seeks not only to instruct the child with simplicity, charm, and wholesomeness, but to heighten his finer appreciation of the beautiful, and to give him, along with keen enjoyment, the things of life that are interesting and valuable.
The authors of the books of this series have been chosen for their special fitness to write books for children. To each author has been given the choice of topic and method of treatment. The result is that the books in the series are not only charming and enjoyable but intellectually satisfying to the child.
The volumes are interesting and attractive in appearance. They are neatly and strongly bound in cloth with design in two colors. The type page is set leaded in large type with a wide margin. The illustrations are numerous and attractive and designed especially to represent the characters that appear in the story.
