What books to lend and what to give

by Charlotte M. Yonge

The books that follow begin with the easiest, and fittest to lend to a thoughtful child, especially to a little invalid.

281. Parables of Our Lord. By the late Earl of Derby. (S.P.C.K.) 1s. 6d.

These are conversations on the Parables in rather set language, but with good applications.

282. Walks from Eden. By Susan and Anna Warner. (Nisbet) 2s. 6d.

283. The House of Israel. By Susan and Anna Warner. (Nisbet) 2s. 6d.

284. The Kingdom of Judah. By Susan and Anna Warner. (Nisbet) 2s. 6d.

285. The Broken Walls. By Susan and Anna Warner. (Nisbet) 2s. 6d.

286. The Star out of Jacob. By Susan and Anna Warner. (Nisbet) 2s. 6d.

These American books are admirable in their way, bringing in Eastern research, historical inquiry, and lights from science in a conversational, but always reverent manner. They do not go into the types or spiritual lessons, but are thoroughly sound and excellent for reading with fairly intelligent young people. I used ‘The Kingdom of Judah’ with great success with a pupil-teacher.

287. The Chosen People. By C. M. Yonge. (W. Smith) 1s.
