Ellingwood Rich is a children's guidebook written in the early 20th century. This instructional book provides detailed directions for children on how to create various types of toy furniture using everyday materials like cardboard boxes. The likely topic of the book revolves around creativity, manual dexterity, and resourcefulness as children learn to make their own playthings.  The book is structured into several chapters, each dedicated to different types of furniture, such as parlor furniture, bedroom furniture, dining room furniture, and more. Each section not only describes the materials needed but also includes clear, step-by-step instructions for construction, often accompanied by illustrations by the author. Children are encouraged to use their imagination and craftsmanship to create items like beds, tables, chairs, and even kitchen cabinets. The text emphasizes that making furniture can provide as much joy and satisfaction as purchasing toys from stores, nurturing both creative skills and the spirit of play in young readers.
