Books with title Play Dates and Other Tales

Play Dates and Other Tales features similar concepts like Ocean Waves and Other Tales. This multi-cultural book uses the same characters (only a little older), and shares four relatable short stories: You, Many Colors, Number Chant, and Play Dates, and contains beautiful illustrations and a musical CD. Educationally, I just love how these elements come together to formulate fun and interesting reading for all children.

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.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Dancer, and Other TalesDelia wasn't bad, Tom went on, but she's nothing to what she was in that last piece of hers. I used to go and see her once a week regularly. But I wonder why she always makes herself such a guy in a black dress whenever she dances now.Ivan laid his head back and blew a ring which drifted sideways across the pale square of the window.Did either of you fellows know Philip Hazleton P said Oliver Dane, still watching the London sky from his window-seat.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
