Editha's Burglar: A Story for Children (Classic Reprint) Paperback - 2015

From the publisher

Excerpt from Editha's Burglar: A Story for Children She was very fond of the newspapers, because she found SO many curious things in them, stories, for instance, of strange events which happened every day in the great city of London, and yet never seemed to happen anywhere near where she lived. Through the newspapers, she found that there were actually men who lived by breaking into peoples' houses and stealing all the nice things they could carry away, and she read that such men were called burglars. When she first began to read about burglars, she was very much troubled. In the first place, she felt rather timid about going to bed at night, and, in the second place, she felt rather sorry for the burglars. I suppose no one ever taught them any better, she thought.
