“One short sentence at the end of the story respecting ‘the little plant that grew in a deep valley,’ will fairly unfold the character and spirit of the book.
‘This simple white blossom is like a good little child, dwelling not in the sunshine of pride and self-conceit, but in the calm shade of meekness, in the deep valley of submission. Such a little one will the Lord of Heaven behold and love.’
Wayward as we ourselves may be, we wish that our children may be all that is amiable, and good, and one way to make them so is to put the ‘Child’s Own Story Book’ in their hands; they will imbibe knowledge and strengthen virtue by the perusal of it.“—Courier and Enquirer.
“Our juvenile friends will be thankful to the publisher for so beautiful a present. It is a book which parents may safely put into the hands of their children.”—Banner of the Cross.
