"True stories for American children about their little brothers and sisters in mission lands, by one who is well known to missionary audiences and Church circles throughout the nation. The work of a born story-teller, it is safe to say that more delightful, interesting and thoroughly captivating stories of other lands are not easily found for children's enchantment, with a lesson in each that will not be quickly forgotten."

The author was a Presbyterian Church missionary in Africa for 24 years and was co-secretary to the American Mission to Lepers.
