'For a child whose eyes are just opening to beauty, and whose imagination is ready to be kindled by a spark from any torch, we can think of few more delightful or enduring gifts than this book, with its immortal themes and its graceful interpretation in our time and tongue. The illustrations by Mr. F. C. Papé deserve praise.'—Morning Leader.

'Told with rare good taste and judgment.'—Daily Telegraph.

'Cannot fail to instruct as well as interest not only children, but schoolboys and schoolgirls who have begun the study of the old Greek and Roman poets. To such students a knowledge of these stories is invaluable. In every respect the book is an excellent one.'—Dundee Courier.
