BY MRS. THOMAS GELDART.
EMILIE THE PEACEMAKER. Price 2s. 6d., foolscap 8vo., or, elegantly boarded, gilt edges, 3s.
“We know not when we have read a tale so entirely to our mind as this. It makes us wish we could have our young days over again; for sure we are that with such a monitor as ‘Emilie,’ we should have been saved from many bitter after feelings of regret. The lesson conveyed in the tale is one of heavenly wisdom, inculcating ‘peace upon earth, and good-will towards men,’ and the heart of every reader must be improved by it.”
TRUTH IS EVERYTHING: A Tale for Young Persons. Second Edition, Foolscap 8vo. Price 2s. 6d., or, elegantly boarded, gilt edges, 3s.
“The story is simply and tenderly told; carries unobtrusively in it, not at the end of it, a right lesson; and is the work of a Christian and a lady. Pure, gentle, and devout it therefore is, of course.”
“We can give no better proof than the fact that we put it into a little girl’s hands, and we could not draw her attention from it for a moment until she had read it through.”
“This is a charming little book for the young; the matter is very interesting, not over-drawn; while its tenor is to win over youth to the practice and love of truth.”

EXTRACTS FROM REVIEWS.
“A pretty little Story Book, prettily illustrated, about the lochs and glens, the abbeys and castles, the old houses and ruined towers of Scotland.”
“A very interesting Series of Tales connected with the History of Scotland.”
“Its merit is, that it tells interesting stories without spoiling them.”
“Such indeed is the charming tell-tale style adopted, that the infant mind is beguiled into acquaintance with subjects of which heads resting on older than baby shoulders are often ignorant.”
“It has found its way into the royal nursery.”
