Seton, Ernest Thompson. Woodmyth and fable. [*]$1.25. Century.
A book of booty gathered in the woods, quaint myths and fables, some of which are of Indian origin, while some have been whispered to the wood lover author-artist by Mother Nature herself. He has pointed them with clever morals, and illustrated them with dainty drawings. It is a book to pick up in odd moments, for in its prose and rime one can find beauty, sympathy, humor, and clever satire; and young folks can learn something of the discontented giraffe, the unmannerly porcupine, the stubborn land-crab, and other animals with human frailties.

“It is a series of chips from the workshop of a man who does larger things,—the brilliant joking of a thinker off duty.” May Estelle Cook.
