A Story of the City Beautiful. By Mrs. Frances Hodgson Burnett. Illustrated by Reginald B. Birch. Uniform with “Fauntleroy,” etc. Square 8vo, $1.50.
The largest and most notable children’s book that Mrs. Burnett has written since “Fauntleroy.” It is a charming story of a little boy and girl, who, taking their small savings, leave home to visit the World’s Fair. This is their Pilgrims’ Progress; and their interesting adventures and the happy ending of it all Mrs. Burnett tells as no one else can. It is in the author’s best vein and will take place in the hearts of her readers close beside “Fauntleroy.”
