Every child should know Mr. Cox's prankish, helpful Brownies. The verses are accompanied by many delightful pictures.
Hazard, Bertha (Editor).
Three Years with the Poets.
Houghton. .50
While these selections are intended for memorization by children, and are arranged by months for the school year, the collection is so good as to fill a useful place in the home library. At the end of the book are a few pages of wisely chosen little selections of poetry and prose, truly called Helps for the Day's Work.
Ostertag, Blanche (Editor and Illustrator).
Old Songs for Young America.
Music arranged by Clarence Forsyth.
Doubleday. 2.00
The familiar songs, set to the music of the old tunes, and charmingly illustrated,--the costumes those of olden days. Some of the pictures are in color and some in black and white. The Monkey's Wedding, Bobby Shafto, and Old Dan Tucker, are included in the contents.
