*Phaeton Rogers.
Scribner. 1.50
Phaeton was so inventive that he was always in hot water. Boys love to read of his pranks and pleasures.
Lucas, E.V.
Anne's Terrible Good Nature, and Other Stories for Children.
Macmillan. 1.75
The atmosphere of these eleven tales is decidedly English, but they are so unusually good that our children will read them with enjoyment notwithstanding the unfamiliar setting. The Thousand Threepenny Bits, The Anti-Burglars, and the uncommonly funny one called The Monkey's Revenge, are among the number.
Marryat, Frederick.
Masterman Ready.
Illustrated by Fred Pegram.
Macmillan. 1.50
As children we parents learned to love old Masterman, the faithful and resourceful friend of the good Seagraves. Even now our eyes grow a little misty as we think of his brave death.
