A Child's Home Companion is chock full of wonderful poems for children from ages 6 to 12. Moral Lessons like in the old McGuffey Readers are taught with the idea of telling children how to act and play with traditional values that fit into American culture as it was meant to be including kindness, fair play, respect and belief in the right things. These values coincide with the stories from the Bible, but there are those that are offshoots of nursery rhymes, fairy tales, and other children's stories like those of Hans Christian Anderson, Robert Louis Stevenson and Dr. Seuss.
Many of the stories come from my days of being a farm boy while growing up and then arriving in West Texas where the cowboy culture taught if it is not yours, don't take it; if it is not good don't say it; and if it is not right, don't do it.
I have concluded that under the modern immorality now being taught, it is time to change our teaching and approach to children, so they may grow up in a balanced culture that teaches respect for the law and police, love and country and patriotism, and belief in God.
