Tuffy Bean
and his
skylarking
brother
Cobby, two
lost dogs,
are filled
with
wonderment
when they
meet a
robber band
like Ali
Baba's in
the forest.
"Open,
Sesame!"
Thus the
dwarfish
robber
captain
opens a
treasure
cave --
which sounds
like a fairy
tale, but
wait till
you read the
exciting,
hilarious,
mystifying
story as
told so
humorously
by funny
little Tuffy
himself.
And how
you'll
giggle when
you meet
Bouncing
Bella, the
temperamental
skunk, who
brought her
entire
smelly
family to
the dogs'
sleeping
quarters to
drive them
out and thus
repay them
for an
earlier mean
trick.
Tuffy Bean
is destined
to become
the idolized
"hero" of
millions of
young book
readers.
And indeed
he deserves
this
wide-spread
affection.
For a fine,
loyal,
honorable,
trustworthy,
fun-loving
pal is he.

Tuffy
Bean's
One-Ring
Circus
A performer
in queer old
Ebenezer
Tiffer's
one-ring dog
show, Tuffy
Bean shares
prominently
in the
skylarking
pranks that
mark the
show's
town-to-town
travels and
overnight
stops.
Here you'll
meet a
wonderful
new dog,
Mutt.
Also snippy
little
Powder Puff,
cock Beans,
blunt Paint
Brush and
poor Wiggles
whose life
was snuffed
out when the
box cat in
which the
show troupe
was secretly
riding
rolled down
a Tennessee
mountain.
Given a home
by wistful
little Molly
Thorne,
another
Cinderella,
the dogs
later meet
the silly
mysterious
countess (in
search of
the lost
diamonds)
and her
pampered pet
donkey,
Archibald.
All of which
provides
countless
paragraphs
of hilarious
fun and
thrilling
mysterious
situations,
so
characteristic
of Leo
Edwards'
successful
books, of
which this
one is a
favorite of
his.

Tuffy
Bean
at
Funny Bone
Farm
There were
ghosts at
the strange
"Hidden
House!" So
Tuffy Bean
had been
told by his
new
four-footed
companions.
But what our
adventuresome
"hero" found
there one
exciting
night,
instead of
ghosts, was
another dog
of amazing
characteristics.
His heart
having been
touched by
Sauerkraut's
sad stories,
Tuffy
cheerfully
offers to
help bring
up her
fatherless
pups. Then,
to his
growing
horror, he
finds
himself in
the clutches
of a
four-legged
Bluebeard...
Stolen,
Tuffy and
his new
master, a
lad of
twelve, then
settle at
Funny-Bone
Farm. And
there occur
the
surprising
events
recorded
herein,
starting
with the
hazardous
launching of
a raft on a
stormy lake
and ending
with
disclosures,
involving a
long-guarded
“dead
chest,” that
will leave
you
breathless.
Fun,
mystery,
shivers
suspense -
all combined
in a
delightful
story for
children

4. Tuffy
Bean & the
Lost Fortune
Tuffy Bean
is a dog.
Living a
happy
care-free
life at
Funny_Bone
Farm, his
curiosity is
aroused by
the
appearance
of an odd
old man
wearing a
green wig.
The man's
pockets
bulged with
money.
Later this
money
disappeared.
But not
until his
death did
the grasping
relatives
learn the
money was
hidden.
No one
suspected
that the key
to the lost
fortune was
contained in
the green
wig.
But Tuffy
cleverly
learned the
facts!
And in the
end he
played an
important
part in the
wig's
recovery,
thus aiding
a
much-wronged
orphan boy.
Here you'll
meet two new
dogs,
Melancholy,
"the walking
hospital,"
and snippish
little
Gertie.
Nor must we
overlook
Suds, a
jolly little
pig.
Tuffy tells
the lively
skylarking
story
himself.
That's why
it's so
funny.
