The thought came into my mind, Write a book for the children; and while I listened, it became a desire and a pleasant one, for I would dearly love to become the household friend of many little children who are growing up within the homes of the Saints. If they are willing to listen, I will tell them a few true stories, not fairy ones, indeed, of which little ones are so fond, so fascinating, but, alas! so false. No, these must be true. This book is the fulfillment of a wish expressed by President Brigham Young a short time before his death, and in conclusion he said, Who will write a book for the children? To attempt this was in my power, but it required means to publish, and this I could not do alone. Two good Brethren, who think more of the youth of our people than they do of riches, were kind enough to lend me the use of what was needed to accomplish the object. AUGUSTA JOYCE CROCHERON Bountiful, Davis County, Utah, September 3, 1890
