and their elders, extremely funny
both in text and illustrations."--Boston Express.
Little Lucy's Wonderful Globe. By Charlotte M.
Yonge. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price 75 cents.
"This story is unique among tales intended for children, alike for pleasant
instruction, quaintness of humor, gentle pathos, and the subtlety with
which lessons moral and otherwise are conveyed to children, and perhaps
to their seniors as well."--The Spectator.
Joan's Adventures at the North Pole and Elsewhere.
By Alice Corkran. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price 75 cents
"Wonderful as the adventures of Joan are, it must be admitted that
they are very naturally worked out and very plausibly presented. Altogether
this is an excellent story for girls."--Saturday Review.
Count Up the Sunny Days: A Story for Girls and Boys.
By C. A. Jones. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price 75 cents.
"An unusually good children's story."--Glasgow Herald.
The Dove in the Eagle's Nest. By Charlotte M.
Yonge. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00.
"Among all the modern writers we believe Miss Yonge first, not in
genius, but in this, that she employs her great abilities for a high and
noble purpose. We know of few modern writers whose works may be so
safely commended as hers."--Cleveland Times.
Jan of the Windmill. A Story of the Plains. By Mrs.
J. H. Ewing. 12mo, cloth, illustrated, price $1.00.
"Never has Mrs. Ewing published a more charming volume, and that
is saying a very great deal. From the first to the last the book overflows
with the strange knowledge of child-nature which so rarely survives
childhood: and moreover, with inexhaustible quiet humor, which
is never anything but innocent and well-bred, never priggish, and never
clumsy."--Academy.
A Sweet Girl Graduate. By L. T. Meade. 12mo, cloth,
illustrated, price $1.00.
"One of this popular author's best. The characters are well imagined
and drawn. The story moves with plenty of spirit and the interest does
not flag until the end too quickly comes."--Providence Journal.
For sale by all booksellers, or sent postpaid on receipt of price by the
publisher. A, L. BURT, 52-58 Duane Street. New York.
