About This Book
All signs of the time indicate that the story-telling age has returned. "Time doth run back and fetch the age of gold." But the places once held by bards and minstrels, gallant young troubadours and minnesingers are to-day being taken by mothers, teachers, directors of boys' and girls' clubs, and playground and settlement workers. The once slowly recruited band of story-tellers bids farewell to a good-sized army. Moreover, with numbers comes organization and story-tellers' leagues are springing up all through our wide land.
