The Book Of Joyous Children Gratefully And Affectionately Inscribed To Joel Chandler Harris
You who to the rounded prime Of a life of toil and stress, Still have kept the morning-time Of glad youth in heart and spirit, So your laugh, as children hear it, Seems their own, no less, - Take this book of childish rhyme - The Book of Joyous Children. Their first happiness on earth Here is echoed - their first glee: Rich, in sooth, the volume's worth - Not in classic lore, but rich in The child-sagas of the kitchen; - Therefore, take from me To your heart of childish mirth The Book of Joyous Children.
