New Plays from Old Tales Arranged for Boys and Girls (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from New Plays From Old Tales Arranged for Boys and Girls

By boys and girls in the Reading Clubs of the New York Public Library. Because they found favor with parents and friends of club members we venture to share them with a larger audience. The purpose of story telling and club work in the library is to arouse deeper and more varied interests in reading. This has influenced the choice of stories dramatized. We have tried to keep the style and charm of the master story tellers whose work we have adapted, and trust that the plays will be given with due regard for literary atmosphere and appropriate settings. The stage may be small and arrangements simple but imagination and fancy need not be limited.
