“Miss Yonge’s two small volumes are suited to children by their simplicity of language and clearness of subject.... We think that the poems are judiciously and carefully chosen, and much attention has been bestowed on the short notes, the chief object of which is just to give children a little knowledge of matters and allusions which they would not properly understand.”—Educational Times on Parts I. and II.
“We have no doubt that it was a labour of love to Miss Yonge to select and to annotate the stirring ballad music in which English literature is so rich. It will be nothing less than a liberal education to the children of the poor (or, indeed, of the rich) to commit to memory and ponder over such verses as these.”—Literary Churchman.
“We have in this interesting volume a rare collection of pieces suitable for recitation. Much judgment has been exercised in choosing suitable poems, and care has been taken in so adapting the pieces for standard work that their fitness is at once apparent. It is the best collection of historical ballads that we know of.”—Teachers’ Aid.
