| This quaint publication is faithfully reproduced from the antique original dated from 1920. The Altemus Drawing Books are not merely books for amusement. They are designed for use in kindergarten for training the Child's eye and hand, and enlarging their mutual activities.The young artists begin by drawing line from dot #1 to #2 and thence proceed in straight lines to numbers 3,4,5 and so on to the end of the numbers, when the figure to be reproduced assumes form and life. When the young artists have thus connected all the numbers they will be suprised at the amusing pictures of boys and girls and their frolic and escapades-and the picture books will be books of their own creating- and hence always treasured.
