Illustrated with numerous full-page drawings of children, their teachers, and their parents. A collection of poems for children, focused on trifling topics like being late for school, and on serious social issues like sexism and how it affected children, and what it's like to grow up poor in early twentieth-century America. One of the poems reads: "No Fun to Be a Girl. I don't see why I can't do things like a boy but mama, when I try boy-fashion to slide, says all of her teaching I simply de-stroy an' wants me to know that she feels horrified! Just wait! I'll grow up to a voter some day an' first thing I do will be slide just that way." A collection of poetry and drawings published before women could vote across the country, speaking to societal issues that Americans faced at the turn of the century. Very Good with rubbing to the edges revealing the corners and a small concavity to the spine.
