Book excerpt: Down the Snow Stairs is a story about Kitty, a mischievous eight-year-old who has found herself in a whole heap of trouble on Christmas Eve. Eight-year-old Kitty is in bed but cannot sleep. Through her own thoughtlessness and disobedience, her beloved little brother, Johnny, lies critically ill in bed, she is now wrought with guilt about her actions. When she eventually falls asleep, she travels in a dream to “Naughty Children Land.” There she meets many strange people, including Daddy Coax who is so tender-hearted he cannot bear to see naughty children punished, and gives them candies and gifts when they are naughty, in the hope he can cajole, or coax, them back to being good. She also meets the beautiful lady, Love, who offers naughty children the kiss of forgiveness and the opportunity to return to the Path of Obedience. But, to reach her home again, Kitty must find a way to stand firm against the many temptations and enticements she faces and win the Christmas blessing! The 16 adventures in this book have been given added life to an already excellent text by the 60 pen and ink illustrations provided by Gordon Browne. 10% of the profit from the sale of this book is donated to charities. =========================== Keywords/Tags: Down, Snow Stairs, Christmas eve, Kitty, Folklore, Fairy Tales, myths, legends, children’s stories, fables, kids, Johnnie, Naughty Children Land, Daddy Coax, Stream, Pictures, Fog, Love, Woods, Dance, Strange Partner, Play-Ground, Myself, Gate, Restlessness, Art, Treasures, Snow-Man, Wide Staircase, Tears, Slide, Baluster, Visit, Drollery, Elf, elves, Broken Toys, Dismal, Chorus, black creature, Cruel-Heart, Song of the Sillies, Jam-Tarts, Wig, Powder, Spitfire, Flute, Shadow, Rod, mist, White Robe, Entangled, Web, Tramp, Weary Feet, Ice-Children, Hard Lesson, Faces, Kiss, Guardian, Child, Naughty, Goblin, Dwarf, Goblin, Sloth, spring, Wriggle, Courtiers, Musing, Apple-Pie Corner, Merry, Game, Goblin Crew, Locked Gate, Punishment, secret,
