Here is a collection of nearly forty stories written during the late 1800's, each story designed to build good character in children. The stories were selected from four out-of-print books: Scrapbook Stories, Golden Grains(vols. 1 and 3), and Lost Jewels.
While I did not agree with every single story, I can say that every single one is worth meditating on. Thought and soul provoking - the last one even made me cry. This book is definitely a worthy resource of any Christian family's shelf. I'd even argue it is worth every adult taking the time to read and to consider the simple truths within.
