âÂÂDame Mary Daly is to be congratulated don having conceived the idea of this lovely book, which will give joy and pleasure to so many of our young people. No less than seventeen of Australia's most distinguished artists agreed most readily to produce the illustrations, everyone of which is, in itself, a gem. Equally delightful are the stories which Dame Mary has herself written and which run through this fascinating and unique book. I should like to express my appreciation to Dame Mary and to all those distinguished painters who have made this book possible. The efforts of those who have contributed towards this most colourful production could not have been made in a more splendid cause than to assist our fine Hospital School for Crippled Children - Yooralla.
