Page:Growing Up (1928).djvu/17



book tells how we become alive, and are born and grow up.

It is a story that has happened to everybody, to your neighbors next door, to your mother and to your father, and to you.

We are all interested in it. We have all been babies and we have all been born, so, of course, we want to know how we came into the world.

It is to tell boys and girls this story that I have written Growing Up.
