Herein are 17 illustrated stories by Robert Gordon Anderson with 16 full-page colour  illustrations by Dorothy Hope Smith. This volume is the sequel to The Seven O'Clock Stories also written by Robert Gordon Anderson and with the same three happy children and are short stories of everyday happenings on a farm. The story of the Big Bobsled, even contains instructions on how to make your own.
 The volume is introduced with "The Top Of The Morning" which is the saying the Toymaker uses as a greeting, no matter the weather which sets the tone of the book.
The stories are:
"The Top Of The Morning"
I  The Little Lost Fox
II  The Big Bobsled
III  The Jolly Roger
IV  The Blue Croaker,  The Bright Agate, And  The Little Gray Mig
V  The Old Woman Who Lived On The Canal
VI  Two O' Cat
VII  The Fairy Lamp
VIII  The Animals' Birthday Party
IX  Dr. Philemon Pipp,  The Patient Medicine Man
X  When Jehosophat  Forgot His Piece
XI  Ole Man Pumpkin
XII  The Norway Spruce
XIII  When The Door Opened
XIV  The Hole That Ran  To China
XV  The Peppermint Pagoda
XVI  He That Took The City
These stories are simply and naturally told and are for children aged five to nine years old.
As with all children’s stories, they have originated in a place  where good wishes come true: where the poor and the lonely are rich and live in castles and have friends: and where sorrowful folk are happy. Here you will hear the birds singing and children laughing, all day long. The trees are full of blossoms and fruit. The sky is always blue, the grass green and soft. Under the trees dwell the fairies, and against the blue sky you will sometimes see the sheen of angels’ wings as the flit by.
We invite you to curl up with this unique sliver of Fairy culture not seen in print for over a century; and immerse yourself in the tales and fables of yesteryear.
10% of the net sale will be donated to charities by the publisher.
