      THE PICTURES IN THIS BOOK

      were taken in Germany! That is, the pictures of cities and churches and parks were taken there. But Mitz and Fritz and Mr. and Mrs. Toymaker were not.

      These characters are played by my good actor friends. You have seen them all on the screen. But never before did you see:

      Those are the parts they play in this book.

      And then, a musician friend helped me, too. What more could one ask than to have as the music master such a great violinist as Alexander Zukovsky?

      I am grateful to all these kind people.

      Oh, dear! I almost forgot to be grateful to my dog friend, Koopsak, who posed as Frankfurter!
