THE LITTLE WASHINGTONS SERIES
By LILLIAN ELIZABETH ROY
Handsomely Bound. Colored Wrappers. Illustrated. For Children 6 to 12 Years
This series presents early American history in a manner that impresses the young readers. Because of George
and Martha Washington Parke, two young descendants of the famous General Washington, these stories
follow exactly the life of the great American, by means of playing they act the life of the Washingtons, both in
battles and in society.
THE LITTLE WASHINGTONS
Their thrilling battles and expeditions generally end in "punishment" lessons read by Mrs. Parke from the
"Life of Washington." The culprits listen intently, for this reading generally gives them new ideas for further
games of Indian warfare and Colonists' battles.
THE LITTLE WASHINGTONS RELATIVES
The Davis children visit the Parke home and join zealously in the games of playing General Washington. So
zealously, in fact, that little Jim almost loses his scalp.
THE LITTLE WASHINGTONS' TRAVELS
The children wage a fierce battle upon the roof of a hotel in New York City. Then, visiting the Davis home in
Philadelphia, the patriotic Washingtons vanquish the Hessians on a battle-field in the empty lot back of the
Davis property.
THE LITTLE WASHINGTONS AT SCHOOL
After the school-house battle the Washingtons discover a band of gypsies camping near the back road to their
homes and incidentally they secure the stolen horse which the gypsies had taken from the "butter and egg
farmer" of the Parkes.
THE LITTLE WASHINGTONS' HOLIDAYS
They spend a pleasant summer on two adjoining farms in Vermont. During the voyage they try to capture a
"frigate" but little Jim is caught and about to be punished by the Captain when his confederates hasten in and
save him.
