The Little Frankie stories, are popular children’s books written by Herriette Newell Woods, and were first published in the 1860s; the set contended six books in all. They are “Little Frankie And His Mother, Little Frankie at His Plays, Little Frankie and His Cousin, Little Frankie and His Father, Little Frankie on a Journey, and Little Frankie at School.” The theme of the stories is about a little boy (Frankie), his family and school friends, and by his interaction with them Frankie learns about right and wrong. The books have a religious or moral theme, their style is considered very true to life, and the characters have been thought of as original and detailed. Through the series Frankie learns how to think about life in a biblical way, and to stop and ask himself if this is the ways of the Christ. These books are so inspiring that not only will children of all ages enjoy reading them, but parents will appreciate reading them aloud to their whole family.
Although the books were quite popular when they were originally printed and have remained so, they were never published before together in one volume. Of all six books, “Little Frankie and His Father” is the rarest; even so much that at the present it cannot be found in the form of eBook. Therefore this volume will be the first of its kind, not only because “Little Frankie and His Father” is here in eBook form, but also because all six book are offered together in one volume.
Many illustrations that were in the original printing have been added to this volume. The illustrations have been touched up and colored. The spelling of many of the outdated words and punctuation has been modernized. We have also added a linked table of contents which will take you directly to the book or chapter of your choice.
