Excerpt from Stories for Eva
Our denominational literature, so rich in most particulars, has been seriously deficient in books especially adapted for Sunday-school libraries, while it has been extremely difficult to find, outside the denomination, books of a distinctively religious character, unblemished by objectionable theological dogmas.
The Sunday-school Society, desirous of doing something towards remedying this defect, offered, in May, 1867, three premiums of $100, $50, and $25, respectively, "for the best three manuscripts of books calculated for Unitarian Sunday-school libraries, and adapted to children under ten years of age." Of course these were designed as a beginning only, the intent being to publish a few choice books each year, till a large and valuable list should be obtained.
In response to the offer, twenty-nine manuscripts were handed in, and carefully read by the committee.
