[*] Johnson, Burges. Pleasant tragedies of childhood. [†]$1.50. Harper.

“Experiences more or less tragical to babies and children, but pleasantly told in Mr. Johnson’s verses and humorously depicted in Miss Cory’s sketches. Fathers and mothers will be amused by them, and the juvenile victims—some of them at least—will enjoy the pictures.”—Critic.
