It aims to acquaint you with the lovable and unique personality of Tony Sarg, illustrator, cartoonist, and creator of marionettes; and to tell you about puppet shows, a little of their long and varied history and of certain matters connected with modern puppets which have probably awakened your curiosity, if you have been fortunate enough to see the plays acted by Mr. Sarg's artistic and expressive manikins. Tony Sarg himself is responsible for a great deal of the information contained in this book. He has revealed some of the mysteries which make his marionette productions so different from ordinary puppet shows, and has spent hours with the author, telling him how he became interested in marionettes and how he developed the quaint old form of entertainment along the hues of the modern "artistic marionettes," as they are known in Europe, of which his dolls are probably the most charming examples of the present day. Mr. Sarg has consented to tell young people how they may build marionette stage of their own and how to make and operate puppets. In this book, children who can work with tools, and have some dramatic instinct, will find instructions which will enable them to give successful marionette productions at home.
