By Amy E. Blanchard, Author of “Taking a Stand,” “Thy Friend Dorothy,” etc. Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth. $1.00.
This is a pretty, wholesome child’s story, one of the sort that commends itself to children’s sympathies and will be conned again and again. The author is Amy E. Blanchard, who has written several other acceptable juveniles. No mother need hesitate ever putting this or any other of Miss Blanchard’s stories into her little daughter’s hands.—Detroit Free Press.
Amy E. Blanchard is the author of quite a number of pure-toned stories for girls, and her latest book is “A Dear Little Girl,” who won the love of everybody through the expression of a character at once simple and innocent.—Philadelphia Call.
The story of a bright, charming, tender, and good-hearted little girl, whose kindness, amiability, and natural and unaffected goodness charm all who come in contact with her, and soften the heart even of those who are inclined to be harsh and severe with children. It is one of a number of books published lately which give an insight into the feelings and motives of childhood. It indicates how their seeming faults are frequently the result of their good impulses.
The simple story is well told, and will interest children and all who are interested in them.—Pittsburg Times.
A SWEET LITTLE MAID
By Amy E. Blanchard, Author of “A Dear Little Girl,” “Dimple Dallas,” etc., etc. Illustrated. 12mo. Cloth. $1.00.
The heroines are a little white girl and a little black girl, two very intimate friends. It is a charming story for little girls—charmingly illustrated.—Outlook.
This is a fascinating story, told in Miss Blanchard’s delightful style, and it will be a very queer little maid that will not enjoy reading about the good times enjoyed by Florence, Dimple and Bubbles and their dollies.—Richmond Times.
Miss Blanchard has the happy knack of writing in a way to interest little children, and this simple tale is likely to interest many a young reader where a more pretentious narrative would fail.—Indianapolis Journal.
