Excerpt from Quaint Old Stories to Read and Act Much of the best traditional literature is essentially dramatic. Animals meet and talk, kings discourse with their subjects, rich men and poor men bring their cases before wise judges, fairies in disguise search the hearts of men by their questions, and even the pot and the kettle converse. To meet the call for dramatic material for children's use, thirty stories have been gathered from the literature of all countries, and set in dramatic form for reading and acting. They are not plays, though many of them could easily be staged.
