A Mother's List of Books for Children

by Gertrude Weld Arnold

McMurry, C. A.

Illustrated by A. S. Forrest.
Stokes. 2.50

The child is to put this volume, not at the lesson-book end of the shelf, but with Robinson Crusoe and the like. So the preface suggests, and rightly. It is eminently readable, a success, we should say, in what looks much easier than it is, telling a story in simple words.--The Spectator.

A history of the Mother Country, from earliest legendary times delightfully related. The thirty full-page illustrations in color add to its attraction.
