[From Introduction] Many of you remember the Boy Named Billy who spent a summer with Somebody in the north woods. Billy did not care for make-believe stories so much as he did for true ones. He was tremendously interested in the things that are really-so: how customs began, and what certain days mean, and why things are the ay they are. So Somebody told him about them, and they were put into a book called he Really-So Stories that many of you have read. But the Boy Named Billy was like Oliver Twist: he wanted more. He was always wishing for more really-so stories. And Mom and Dad couldn't answer all his questions?they had a few other things to do. So they thought of the plan of asking Somebody to come and make them a good long visit while writing a new book, and just answer Billy's questions when it was perfectly convenient. It so happened that Somebody, who strange to say enjoyed answering questions anyway, was delighted with the idea. And so there were more really-so stories. And because so many children, both small and large liked The Really-So Stories just as much as Billy did when they were all put into a book, here is a book of More Really-So Stories, which Somebody told on that long visit to Mom and Dad, Big sister, Little Sister, Uncle Ned and old dog Towse?not forgetting the Boy Named Billy.
