"Dr. Hardhack's Prescription: A Play for Children in Four Acts" by Harriet Beecher Stowe and K. McDowell Rice is a charming play that was often performed for children. The play is simple to follow and engaging enough that even modern kids who are used to more elaborate forms of entertainment will still enjoy it. The authors worked together seamlessly to create a tale that translates on a page the same way it would on stage.
