Everyday Plays for Boys and Girls

Rating:
Summary: Plays for children: many from fairy tales or nursery rhymes
Review: 16 plays including the following: So Long at the Fair (from the favorite folk song), Sourdough Sally (Alaskan customs), The Paper Bag Mystery (Girl Scouts to the rescue), The Trial of Mother Goose (in defense of nursery rhymes), The Return of Bobby Shafto, the Mouse That Soared (the first mousetronaut), The Gentle Giant-Killer (grappling with grammar), Simple Simon's Reward (further adventures of the pie eater), The Glass Slippers (Cinderella story), The Miraculous Tea Party (book characters make loyal friends). The plays are short, with easy-to-learn dialogue, casts of varying sizes, and simple costume and setting requirements.
