Stunt dwarf or destroy the imagination of a child and you have taken away its chances of success in life. Imagination transforms the commonplace into the great and creates the new out of the old.
L. Frank Baum
In all this world there is nothing so beautiful as a happy child, says good old Santa Claus and if he had his way the children would all be beautiful, for all would be happy.
L. Frank Baum
