The sequel to Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The illustrations are the same as those that appeared in the original edition.

"To the Looking-Glass world it was Alice that said,
'I've a sceptre in hand, I've a crown on my head.
Let the Looking-Glass creatures, whatever they be,
Come and dine with the Red Queen, the White Queen, and me!'"

Collodi, C. (Pseudonym of Carlo Lorenzini).

Pinocchio, The Adventures of a Marionette.
Illustrated by Charles Copeland.
Ginn. .40

Of all the fairy stories of Italian literature this is the best known and the best loved.... The Florentines call it a literary jewel, and as such it should be known to all young readers.--Preface.

Though children can but dimly comprehend this charming allegory, they will recognize its truth. Pinocchio, the wayward and mischievous marionette, through his kindly actions grows to be a real little boy, with an unselfish loving heart. There are many attractive drawings.
