The Crown of Success

Dame Desley is going away on a long journey and must leave her four children, Dick, Lubin, Matty, and Nelly, in the care of a queer old gentleman named Mr. Learning. Mr. Learning will provide each with a cottage called Head and a purse full of silver and copper coins called Hours and Minutes, but how the cottages will be furnished is up to the children. Whichever of the children has done the best job equipping his or her Head by the time Dame Desley returns will be presented with the Crown of Success. This book is an allegory written especially for young students. Illustrated.

I hope you enjoy this book. When I first started reading books on my Nook Library I noticed that there are many free classics available. However the formatting is terrible and some are unreadable because of errors in the text. Therefore, I decided to start publishing quality classics that included chapter breaks, table of contents, linked chapters, and illustrations when available. Keep your eye out for inspirational stories from us, EirenikosPress.
