PEANUT THE STORY OF A BOY - BY ALBERT BIGELOW PAINE

This book is one of Paine’s lesser-known works, written for children. It tells the story of “Peanut,” a mischievous but endearing little boy, and the humorous adventures that follow him through everyday life. Like many children’s stories of the early 20th century, it mixes gentle moral lessons with lighthearted humor.
The style is warm, playful, and meant to capture the charm of childhood in a simple, relatable way. It reflects Paine’s skill at writing both whimsical tales and stories with a sense of humanity.
