Octavo, marbled boards (hardcover), full-color illus. paper label to upper cover, gilt letters and decorations, [71] pp + [x] pp blank. Very Good, with former-owner inscription and lightly rubbed edges in a Very Good dust jacket with light edgewear. From Introduction: Can a lad of ten grow up in one of our modern cities and be ignorant of the meaning of the word, "love"? In my own kindergarten the majority of little ones had not the word in their vocabulary, and these children were many degrees removed from the tenement class. In our California playgrounds the word is seldom used among children. Ask the simple quest, "Do you love sister or mother?" and the answer is a blank stare. Use the word "like" and a ready "Sure" is the response. But in the tenements of our cities this problem is not one to cause wonder. A brief word-picture will be sufficient for the reader more readily to understand Tony's ignorance as well as the attitude of Maggie and Mrs. Murphy. The average tenements are in a locality densely populated and badly congested. The types of faces one meets in the many alleys represent the various stages of starvation and spent energies. The women seem to have lost all hold on their womanhood, and the little ones are prematurely old in experience and vice. We will go into a home. It is a basement room, damp, dark and foul. A family of seven or more occupy this shelter. The children are unkempt and pitifully hungry; the father is in the penitentiary, and the mother in the factory. Imagine the weary, work-stunned mother coming home to feed her brood at night, after twelve hours of steady labor and only sixty cents to show for her toil. Is is possible for her to give any expression to her mother-love, if any there may be? Can you conceive of love on the lips of this family? We can go into a better home. It may be on the first or top floor of a tenement, according to the wages of the parents. Here we find in two rooms a family of ten. The father, a foreigner, has come to America to obtain wealth. He may receive a dollar a day, it may be more, but at the merciless expense of his manhood; for as the mills of men grind out the progress of the world, they also grind away the divinity and humanity of a man's being. He is a mere cog in a wheel. Once his ideals are gone, drink becomes his refuge, and the man, who ten or fifteen years ago stepped hopefully upon America's soil, now becomes a brain-stunned, labor-worn, druken beast. The mother goes into the factory and for twelve hours is deprived of her privileges as a mother in order that she also may become a cog in the wheel that grinds out the hopes of the human race. The little ones increase and they in turn go out upon the street, all for the dollar and the lust of gain. Can a boy or girl breathe in love from the streets? Can the over-worked, intoxicated father exemplify the father-love? Can the mother, broken and crushed, find time at night to caress her children? Just picture a home-coming from these parents and ask where the word "love" would find its place. It is difficult for us, shielded as we are by environment, to understand this problem; but when we take into consideration that a child gains his knowledge of love from the home and from the parents, we can readily comprehend the situation.

This thoughtful book explores the transformative power of love in the lives of children living in poverty, and the profound impact it has on the communities around them.
