Bono was a cute, little, cuddly Brown Alaskan Bear who just couldn't catch any fish. All of his friends were great fisher-bears. And so Bono's little story shows us something very important. It shows that, sometimes, when we can't do something we're meant to be able to do, if we watch and pay attention to the world around us we may learn that there are other ways to do those things.

Tommy the Turtle was too afraid to make friends. He was separated from his family when he was still very small, and never went out from behind his coral reef mountain. He had often seen other turtles playing nearby, but did not know they were family or friends. He never wanted to explore because he always thought he would get hurt or eaten by predators that lurked in the shadows. This was the way life was for Tommy until a beautiful Hawksbill Sea Turtle, Tilly, convinced him that everything would be okay - that the ocean is not as dangerous as it looks and that his family will always be there for him.This little story by George Green shows that even if you're feeling lonely now, you will never be alone forever. Family and friends are all around us all the time, and they can help us to overcome our fears. For Tommy, after being found by Tilly life would never be the same again. And the same can happen to you!

The gratifying success of a previous volume of “Amateur Dramas,” and the increasing demand for pieces of a light character suitable for representation without the usual costly theatrical accessories, has induced the writer to prepare a second volume for publication. Like the first, it contains pieces which have been specially prepared for occasional exhibitions, society benefits, and parlor theatricals, and which have only been admitted to “the mimic stage” after having stood the test of public approval. For their production, no scenery is required. A moderate-sized room, having folding-doors or hanging curtains to separate the audience from the actors; costumes such as the modern wardrobe will easily supply, with now and then a foray on some good old grandmother's trunks; a wig or two; a few pieces of chalk; red paint; and India-ink,-is all the “extraordinary preparations” and “great expense” necessary.

Once upon a time, so long ago that I have quite forgotten the date, there lived a king and queen who had no children. And the king said to himself, "All the queens of my acquaintance have children, some three, some seven, and some as many as twelve; and my queen has not one. I feel ill-used." So he made up his mind to be cross with his wife about it. But she bore it all like a good patient queen as she was. Then the king grew very cross indeed. But the queen pretended to take it all as a joke, and a very good one too. "Why don't you have any daughters, at least?" said he. "I don't say sons; that might be too much to expect." "I am sure, dear king, I am very sorry," said the queen. "So you ought to be," retorted the king; "you are not going to make a virtue of that, surely." But he was not an ill-tempered king, and in any matter of less moment would have let the queen have her own way with all his heart. This, however, was an affair of state. The queen smiled. "You must have patience with a lady, you know, dear king," said she. She was, indeed, a very nice queen, and heartily sorry that she could not oblige the king immediately.
