A new story by Margaret Sangster is an “event” among a wide circle of readers. Mary E. Wilkins places Mrs. Sangster as “a legitimate successor to Louise M. Alcott as a writer of meritorious books for girls, combining absorbing story and high moral tone.” Her new book is a story of “real life and real people, of incidents that have actually happened in Mrs. Sangster’s life.”
