Some Press Notices.
Daily Chronicle.—“As far as we know no one else sings quite like Mrs. Radford; hers is a bird’s note—thin, high, with a sweet thrill in it, and the thrill is a home thrill, a nest thrill.”
Commonwealth.—“We have read with pure enjoyment Mrs. Radford’s slight but charming cycle of rhymes.”
Star.—“A tender spirit of motherhood inspires Mrs. Radford’s simple little songs.”
Review of Reviews.—“Very charming poems for children not unworthy even to be mentioned in the same breath with Stevenson’s ‘Child’s Garden of Verses.’” Athenæum.—”’Good Night’ is one of the daintiest little books we have seen for years. The verses are graceful and pretty, and the illustrations excellent. It will please both young and old.”
Literary World.—“Charming little songs of childhood.”
New Age.—“Mrs. Radford is closely in touch with a child’s mind, and her ideal child is a nice, soft, loving little creature whom we all want to caress in our arms.”
