Book Description

Harold Wellman Fairbanks, author of "Stories of Our Mother Earth," etc. "When these are understood in their simple relations the child can reach out and take hold of what he has not seen.

In their play the piece of wood may be a ship, and the water in the basin or pond the ocean. Let us watch this natural reaching out and then we shall be prepared to aid it." (introduction)
