A Fore Word:

Table of Contents

This book is no arithmetic

To vex the mind of youth;

Its pages may, perhaps, appear

To be devoid of truth.

But by these tales the young who learn

To recognize a lie,

To that extent will know the truth,

And profit much thereby.

THE PIRATE FROG.

Table of Contents

Some boys whose names I do not know,

Went out to sail their boat one day:

Fast to her stern they tied a line

So she could not sail far away

But little did those boys suspect

That, just beyond a floating log,

With all his trusty followers,

There lay in wait the Pirate Frog.
