- Notes:
- "The name of Gustav Nieritz is now so well known in this country that a preface to the present volume scarcely seems necessary. In his native Germany, he stands first among living writers for the young ... With the entertainment of a lively story, he combines lessons adapted to form the youthful character to social and moral virtue ... It is hoped that this new selection from his ample caket, will be accepted by many of our 'little folks,' as a welcome Christmas gift"--Introduction, page [3].
