Forty chapters upon Bible truths and Bible characters, each chapter written in a manner that will immediately interest the children.

There is a wealth of information and suggestion about this book that will delight all who have anything to do with the training of children.

This book is strikingly new. Ministers and other speakers will find the numerous good stories (forty) eminently useful for illustrative purposes. "The suggestions for object lessons to impress the stories and lessons upon the mind are wise."-The Outlook.
