Summary "St. Nicholas Book of Plays & Operettas (Second Series)" by Various is a collection of children's plays and operettas written in the early 20th century. This volume compiles a variety of festive and imaginative scripts suitable for performance, with themes centering around Christmas and childhood wonder. Each play features charming characters that engage young audiences, bringing magical stories to life through imaginative narratives. At the start of the book, the opening play "The Dream-Toy Shop" introduces a little maiden on Christmas Eve who is visited by the Christmas Fairy. As the Fairy leads the maiden to a whimsical Toy Shop, toys spring to life, creating a joyful and festive atmosphere. The maiden interacts with various characters, including Soldier-boys, Dolls, a Bunny, and a Teddy-Bear, each showcasing delightful antics. This enchanting beginning sets the stage for a collection filled with joy, wonder, and the spirit of generosity typically associated with the Christmas season.
