“The tales are really new, and entertaining as well. They teach good lessons without obtruding the moral aim, and many of them are based on modern scientific discoveries and processes. Even the balloon and the automobile—a ‘conscientious’ one, not the ordinary unprincipled sort—figure in the stories. The illustrations by Flora Sheffield are in keeping.”—Critic.
