Summary | "Little Folks' Christmas Stories and Plays" by Ada M. Skinner is a collection of Christmas-themed stories and plays aimed at children and likely written in the early 20th century. This charming anthology features a variety of tales that capture the spirit of Christmas through themes of joy, generosity, and imagination, making it suitable for both individual reading and storytelling sessions. The characters range from whimsical animals like Mr. Dog and his woodland friends to human children, each embarking on heartwarming adventures that highlight the goodness associated with the holiday season. The opening of the collection presents a foreword that emphasizes the intention behind these selections: to instill a sense of joy and goodwill in young readers. The first story, "Christmas at the Hollow Tree Inn," introduces readers to a group of forest animals who, inspired by Mr. Dog's tales of Santa Claus, decide to hang up stockings in hopes of receiving gifts. Mr. Dog, feeling their excitement, plans to dress up as Santa Claus and surprise them with presents. This delightful premise sets the tone for the rest of the book, which promises to weave together elements of fun, wonder, and the true meaning of Christmas, making it an enticing read for children and families seeking holiday-themed literature.
