This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Excerpt from The Golden Necklace the Story of Timma and TimmiAt this time Tirnma was more like a monkey than a boy, only I am afraid he was not so clean as a monkey. He could climb like a monkey, he ate like a monkey, and he chattered like a monkey. He hardly ever wore any clothes, his long hair was never cut or washed or combed, his face was always dirty, and so was the rest of him. This was not surprising, for he belonged to a tribe of people who do not care about washing.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
