all decided to live
together for the general good.

Papa Bear would do the chores and stand guard over the house at night;
Mamma Bear would do the housework under the direction of Golden Hair,
while the Tiny Bear would wait upon grandmother and run errands for the
household.

And so it came about that the three bears moved their three bowls and
their three beds to the home of Golden Hair and her grandmother, the
very next day; and from all accounts they were happy ever after. At any
rate the fame of Golden Hair and the three bears spread far and wide
through all the countryside, so that on holidays troops of children came
to play with the four jolly friends.

The good natured bears were always anxious to please the children; they
would get up games under the greenwood trees in the summer, and merry
sports upon the icy lake or snowy hills in winter. They did their best
to make life for all, one glad round of joy. Just how long they lived
thus, no one seems to know; for it was a long, long time ago and nothing
is left but a joyous memory of a happy golden time.

Denslow's Picture Books for Children

For these books W.W. Denslow has revised and adapted several of the best
classical fairy tales. He has improved these stories by elimination of
all coarseness, cruelty, and everything that might frighten children.
They are new; more beautiful and striking in both text and picture than
any children's books heretofore published. Each book is filled with
pictures of action and fun in brilliant colors. The twelve books are
uniform in size.
