If you are looking for stories that promote truth, friendship, hard work, and noble character and are geared to attract and entertain boys, then this is the book for you. The thirty-four classic stories in this book were compiled from a four-volume set titled Sabbath Readings. The stories were originally gathered from Methodist, Lutheran, and Presbyterian church papers in the 1870’s and were found in nearly every orphanage in our land during that time. The book includes one hundred illustrations to complement the stories. Tiger and Tom, Stand by the Ship, A Picture of God, and If You Are Only Honest are among the many endearing, entertaining, and character building stories included in this wonderful book. ~ Rachel S.
