Publisher's Synopsis

Queer Little Folks is a children's book written by Harriet Beecher Stowe, the author of Uncle Tom's Cabin. The book features a collection of short stories that revolve around a group of children who live in a magical world. Each story follows the adventures of a different child, including a little girl who can talk to animals, a boy who can fly, and a group of siblings who embark on a journey to find a magical flower. Along the way, the children learn valuable lessons about friendship, kindness, and the importance of using their unique talents to help others. The book is filled with whimsical illustrations and imaginative storytelling that will captivate young readers and adults alike.Now she bustled up to the parsonage at the top of the oak-tree, to tell old Parson Too-Whit what she thought he ought to preach for his next sermon, and how dreadful the morals of the parish were becoming. Then, having perfectly bewildered the poor old gentleman, who was always sleepy of a Monday morning, Mother Magpie would take a peep into Mrs. Oriole's nest, sit chattering on a bough above, and pour forth floods of advice, which, poor little Mrs. Oriole used to say to her husband, bewildered her more than a hard north-east storm.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
