With its vivid descriptions of holiday traditions and charming characters, it is sure to delight readers of all ages.The way I look at it, they never was a diplomy earned quite so upright ez this on earth--never. Ef it wasn't, why, I wouldn't allow him to have it, no matter how much pride I would 'a' took, an' do take, in it. But for a boy o' Sonny's age to've had the courage to face all them people, an' ask to be examined then an' there, an' to come out ahead, the way he done, why, it does me proud, that it does.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
