Book Description

Excerpt from The Lost Lamb: And Other Tales Mother, I wonder what Mr. Jones has! There he comes in the lane, with something in his arms. It looks like a child, only it is too small. Mother, wont you come and see if you can tell what it is These words were Spoken by Caroline Fanton, a girl about eleven years of age. Mrs. Fanton replied, It is not convenient for me to leave my work at present. Mr. Jones will be here in a moment, and then you can see what he has. Young folks should be considerate, and see whether the gratification of their wishes may not cost their friends more than it is worth?
