Comedy for Christian Readers. Stories for Christian Readers, #4

Including classic humor from both British and American authors such as Mark Twain, Saki, and O. Henry, this anthology designed for junior high and high school readers also includes new contributions. This anthology is designed to serve as a bridge for readers to gain appreciation skills for humor in their reading, helping them tackle more complex stories as they proceed. Embedded notes are provided to explain more difficult words, as well as concepts and ideas that were common in previous eras, but not common now.
The classic stories in this anthology may be "lightly edited." Redundant lines are sparingly removed to accommodate reading (fewer than half a dozen in the entire anthology). In one or two places, profane language has been edited. Includes illustrations.
