""The Happy Venture"" by Edith Ballinger Price is a heartwarming children's book that tells the story of a little girl named Nancy and her adventures with her grandfather. Nancy's grandfather takes her on a journey through the countryside, where they explore the beauty of nature and encounter various animals and plants along the way. They also spend time playing games, singing songs, and enjoying each other's company. Through their adventures, Nancy learns important life lessons about love, kindness, and the importance of cherishing every moment. This charming book is filled with colorful illustrations and is perfect for young readers who love stories about friendship, family, and the wonders of the natural world.But Kirk's education filled the most important place, to her, in the scheme of things at Asquam. If she had not been so young, and so ambitious, and so inexperienced, she might have faltered before the task she set herself, temporary though it might be. Long before the Sturgis Water Line had hung out its neat shingle at the harbor-master's wharf; before the Maestro and music had made a new interest in Kirk's life; while Applegate Farm was still confusion--Felicia had attacked the Braille system with a courage as conscientious as it was unguided.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
