The heroine’s cheerfulness and hearty good humor, combined with an unflinching zeal in her determination to accomplish her work, show a character which cannot fail to appeal to young people.
DOROTHY DAY. By Julie M. Lippmann. Illustrated by Ida Waugh. This is a most interesting story of a bright and spirited young girl whose widowed mother remarries.
