Quarto. Illustrated. Cloth, ornamental, $1.50.
“The volume is a small quarto, beautifully printed, and bound in ornamental cloth, and it is embellished with several full-page illustrations. The first three stories deal with colonial days in the vicinity of Philadelphia, and a more charming picture than that drawn of the little colonial Quaker maid we have never seen drawn by the pen. The second story is that of a little girl who was stolen by the Indians and brought up by them with great affection; the third is a delightful story of ‘Christmas in Seventeen Seventy-Six,’ and the others are all very charming. It is a book that children will read, fall in love with, and read again repeatedly. One of the most touchingly beautiful stories that we ever read is ‘A Dog and a Sunbeam in Prison,’ and its lesson of love will sink into every heart.”—Boston Home Journal.
