Produktbeschreibung
The children of the 21st century will find these once out-of-print tales entertaining yet educational. Kit and Kat are two little Dutch Twins who are really named Christopher and Katrina, however their mother says: "They cannot be called Christopher and Katrina until they are four and a half feet high." Now it takes a long time to grow four and a half feet of Boy and Girl. You know, chickens and puppies and colts and kittens always grow up much faster than twins. Kit and Kat ate a great many breakfasts and dinners and suppers, and played a great many plays, and had a great many happy days while they were growing up to their names. I will tell you about some of them... Perkins' cultural geography content is educationally delightful. Hand a child any one of Perkins' "Twins" books and you are not only giving that child "fun" you are also giving them learning thereby cultivating knowledge.
Autorenporträt
Before Lucy Fitch Perking would publish a story, she would first read it to a group of children she knew, to see what they would say about the story. This group included her son Lawrence, his cousins and playmates. The first story they listened to was The Dutch Twins. Since the children in the select group liked it, she published the book, and soon discovered that many more children loved her story. As a result she wrote even more Twins books, which more than two million copies were sold around the world. These books have since gone out of print. However, the stories she told are still relevant today, and it would truly be a tragedy for the children of today to miss these wonderful stories. Bluewater Publications is proud to republish her stories, which we believe will truly enrich the lives and educations of out children.
