Book Overview

""The Two Heaps: And What Miss Brown�������s Sunday-School Class Did About Them"" is a children's book written by Mrs. Edward Ashley Walker and originally published in 1861. The story follows Miss Brown's Sunday-school class as they learn a valuable lesson about the importance of kindness and generosity. The class is presented with two heaps of stones - one large and one small - and is tasked with dividing them equally among themselves. However, one member of the class, a boy named Tom, is not satisfied with his share and takes more stones from the smaller heap. This leads to a discussion about fairness and the importance of sharing, which ultimately inspires the class to donate their stones to a poor family in need. The book is a timeless tale about the power of compassion and the value of helping others.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
