It is a beautiful story of childlike innocence, which could have been written only by a young child. The typescript was tragically destroyed in a house fire, recreated from memory, and published in 1927 when the author was 12. Barbara Newhall Follett was a child prodigy who first wrote this book at the age of 9 on her father's typewriter, with no intention of its being published. I stumbled across her while procrastinatingly surfing Youtube and watching a video on famous people who disappeared. As recently as 48 hours ago, I had never heard of this book or author.
