From the haircut episode of "The Angel Child" to the play-acting of "The Trial, Execution, and Burial of Homer Phelps" the stories are charmingly nostalgic without being sentimental or saccharine. Crane knows how children think and act. "Little Phelps had now passed into that state which may be described as a curious and temporary childish fatalism. He still objected, but it was only feeble muttering, as if he did not know what he spoke. In some confusion they carried him to the rectangle of hemlock boughs and dropped him. Then they piled other boughs upon him until he was not to be seen. The chief stepped forward to make a short address, but before proceeding with it he thought it expedient, from certain indications, to speak to the grave itself. "Lie still, can't ye? Lie still until I get through." There was a faint movement of the boughs, and then a perfect silence."… (mere)

A forgotten classic. Crane's wonderful peek into his childhood world. Full of gentle humor and some outright laughs. Though from a totally different time, its authentic portrayals of the various characters makes you recognize some of the experiences & characters as if from your own childhood. With excellent detail, he caught the universalities of that age group while rendering one nostalgic for a childhood without electronics but ever so rich and vivid in imagination and activity. [Unless you were one of the black servants or living in a black shanty town. Even so not mean-spirited. Rather just an honest depiction from another era.] ... Just a forewarning: ESL speakers and others not adept in english, reading, or history may find this difficult to read due to the writing style of the period and phonetically written dialect. Please, don't let this discourage anyone as it is a delightful book.
