  This beautiful story, which has been a home and school favorite for forty years, takes to itself new vividness and interest in Mrs. Wiggin's own dramatization. In preparing this version, the author had in mind the limitations of the amateur and the time available for school theatricals. The book is so arranged that any single scene or the entire story may be staged with equal effect either with or without stage settings or costumes. For the school, the home, or the amateur dramatic club this is an ideal play—simple, practical, thoroughly interesting, and always successful. Books by Kate Douglas WigginTHE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS.
