Excerpt from The Palmer Cox Brownie Primer: Arranged From Palmer Cox's Brownie Books The editors have arranged the text so as to repeat words constantly; they have likewise placed the subject matter in its proper season, beginning with the early Fall, when school opens. While definite lessons have been indicated on every page, it is to be hoped that the pictures in themselves will suggest to the teacher addi tional topics for talks and blackboard sentences, and at the same time furnish the interest and incentive to in duce the child to learn to read the text. The Appendix contains directions for the use of the vocabulary and of those pages on which the play element is distinctly em phasized.

Small as mice and sly as foxes, the Brownies are a jovial band of free spirits who emerge in the evenings to roam the countryside while humans sleep. They love sports and games, jolly pranks, and adventures of any kind. Their exuberance and fondness for mischief are exceeded only by their kindheartedness, and many needy souls have been helped by their unseen hands. Palmer Cox's Brownies made their debut in an 1883 issue of St. Nicholas Magazine. The fanciful folk were inspired by Scottish folktales but reflected the sensibilities of nineteenth-century American children. This is the first and best of the Brownie books, brimming with 24 short verse tales and more than 260 of the author's whimsical illustrations.
