Housekeeping for Little Girls (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Housekeeping for Little Girls<br><br>The kindly welcome accorded my books for little girls on cooking and sewing, has led naturally to this volume for them on the next step in woman's work, - housekeeping. Though little has been written for children along these practical lines, librarians say that the few works obtainable are in great demand.<br><br>The study of Domestic Science is growing steadily in popular favour, because knowledge of its principles tends directly to increase interest in the family as well as eventually to improve the race. As in the home centre the life and happiness of the whole family, it is of the utmost importance that every girl should realize the dignity and pleasure of caring for a home. In it she will have the opportunity to make use of the best education she has been able to get in literature, music, science, morals and art; and with these uplifting influences her housekeeping will become - instead of heart-breaking drudgery - a work of fascinating delight.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
