THE LITTLE OLD WOMAN WHO LIVED IN A SHOE.

Once on a time there was a Little Old Woman who lived in a Shoe. This
shoe stood near a great forest, and was so large that it served as a
house for the Old Lady and all her children, of which she had so many
that she did not know what to do with them.

[Illustration: Old Woman with children and Shoe.]

But the Little Old Woman was very fond of her children, and they only
thought of the best way to please her. Strong-arm, the eldest, cut
down trees for firewood. Peter made baskets of wicker-work. Mark was
chief gardener. Lizzie milked the cow, and Jenny taught the younger
children to read.
