This is a delightful children’s book from the 1920s that answers all those questions that kids like to ask, wonderfully told through 33 individual stories. With plenty of beautiful, vibrantly-colored illustrations throughout, this book is sure to be a hit with any inquisitive young minds. “For Bobby and Sister Sue had found that, though it was many years since Great Grandfather had been a boy like Bobby, he was as interested as he ever was in all the things that boys like. And because he had lived so many years and had seen so many marvelous things, and had been to war, and ship-wrecked too, he always had many wonderful tales to tell. Bobby and Sister Sue firmly believed that he knew everything. “And so, this book is all about those stories that Great Grandfather told to Bobby and Sister Sue: stories that are so interesting to boys, and girls, too, because they are true, about the things that are and things that really happened.”
