Produktbeschreibung

This little work aims to be the very least of all;-not in size, but in the humility of its contents. It aims at the superlative degree of littleness; and in this point seeks to resemble the least watch ever made-the least picture ever painted-the tiniest flower that ever grew. It desires to be among books as the humming-bird among birds. As soon as a child's mind is capable of receiving systematic instruction, this humble work attempts to convey it. From a very early period a pious mother will, by casual remarks, endeavor to lead her child to the knowledge of his Creator and Redeemer; and in due time she will impart systematic instruction. It may be at three years of age-it may not be till five-that the child is prepared to listen to these little lessons. But-sooner or later-he will give evidence of his immortality by willingly hearkening to discourse concerning the Invisible-the Eternal-the Infinite. The simplicity of the language may seem unworthy of the sublimity of the subject treated of in these pages; and some may smile at the contrast;-but the little one will not smile-except with joy to hear of his Heavenly Father, and of his Incarnate Redeemer; for the merry inmates of the nursery are capable of tasting higher pleasures than toys and dainties can afford.
