Description: The books in this series are copies of 18th and 19th century books. The stories have the original language, sentence structure, and art. The stories present problems people faced, and the principles they preached are as relevant today as they were then. May God be pleased to bless the contents of our "Children's Heritage Series" to the lives of each reader. Webster's warning was given many years ago; times have changed, but not in a Godly manner.

The mission of Triangle Press is to furnish concerned parents tools to help teach children the truth. This "Children's Heritage Series" has not been rewritten as the Character Building Series was, but the books are reproduced in their original form; a form which some feel is antiquated. True. However, they represent not only the teachings of Godly principals, but they also represent a piece of our history and heritage. The vocabulary contained in these books is rich and varied; it is a far cry from the usual limited and bland use of words found in much of today's children's literature. Some children may even be challenged to rewrite a story in modern grammar; the stories may also be used as a springboard for family study and discussion. There are many aspects of this "Children's Heritage Series" to be cherished.

There are four short stories in this volume. Charles Jones, the Footman will prove a valuable lesson to young people as they come to an age where they are able to begin working at various jobs. It teaches that they must be ever faithful to their employers, maintain an excellent character, and shun evil company.

The Good Mother's Legacy is the story of a widow who endeavored to raise her children by the nurturing and admonition ofthe Lord. Her efforts are richly rewarded even though one daughter had to return home like the 'prodigal son.'

The Old Man, His Children, and the Bundle of Sticks is an interesting poem of a father who blesses his children before his death. He uses a bundle of sticks for his illustration of how he wishes them to conduct themselves in the future without him.

The History of Diligent Dick is a heartwarming story relating how fame and fortune are no comfort in life when accompanied by a guilty conscience because they were ill-gotten gains. Diligent Dick and his family, though poor in their humble home, are much happier than the stranger they rescue who finally confesses the sin he has harbored for so long a time.
