Puck of Pook's Hill.
Illustrated by Arthur Rackham.
Doubleday. 1.50
To Dan and Una, sitting, on Midsummer's Eve, in the old fairy ring, appears Puck. By his magic power on this and succeeding visits incidents based on events in Old England's history are told to the children by those who shared in them. A series of remarkable stories, alternating with even more remarkable poems. The average child will better enjoy hearing them read aloud, as they presuppose a fuller knowledge of English history than most American children are likely to possess. Mr. Rackham's pictures in color are fine work.
