This is a new edition of The Tale of Old Dog Spot, originally published in 1921 by Grosset & Dunlap Publishers, New York. Part of the project Immortal Literature Series of classic literature, this is a new edition of the classic work published in 1921-not a facsimile reprint. Obvious typographical errors have been carefully corrected and the entire text has been reset and redesigned by Pen House Editions to enhance readability, while respecting the original edition. Nobody ever spoke of old Spot's master as old Johnnie Green. Yet the two-boy and dog-were almost exactly the same age. Somehow Spot grew up faster than Johnnie. He had stopped being a puppy by the time his young master learned to walk. And when Johnnie was big enough to play around the farm buildings his parents felt sure that he was safe so long as old Spot, as they called the dog, was with him. One of the most important things a parent can do for their child's education is to read to them. Arthur Scott Bailey's books will hold the child's interest, expand their intelligence and foster their love of reading. But a few words would be enough to describe Bailey's beautiful books: Charming, sweetly humorous, simply and well-written children's books. About the Author: Arthur Scott Bailey was born in Vermont on November 15, 1877. He was an American writer, intellectual and author of more than forty children's books, including the famous Tuck-Me-In Tales, the Sleepy-Time Tales, and the Slumber-Town Tales. One of his most admirable qualities was the fact that he never used language that talked down to children; instead, he frequently used words beyond their average vocabulary in an effort to broaden their knowledge. Bailey was a graduate of Harvard. He died on October 17, 1949.
