PRESS OPINIONS OF EDWARD STRATEMEYER'S BOOKS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE.

"In 'Richard Dare's Venture,' Edward Stratemeyer has fully sustained
his reputation as an entertaining, helpful, and instructive writer for
boys."--_Philadelphia Call._

"'Richard Dare's Venture,' by Edward Stratemeyer, tells the story of a
country lad who goes to New York to earn enough to support his widowed
mother and orphaned sisters. Richard's energy, uprightness of
character, and good sense carry him through some trying experiences,
and gain him friends."--_The Churchman, New York._

"A breezy boy's book is 'Oliver Bright's Search.' The author has a
direct, graphic style, and every healthy minded youth will enjoy the
volume."--_N.Y. Commercial Advertiser._

"'Richard Dare's Venture' is a fresh, wholesome book to put into a
boy's hands."--_St. Louis Post Dispatch._

"'Richard Dare's Venture' is a wholesome story of a practical boy who
made a way for himself when thrown upon his own resources."--_Christian
Advocate._

"It is such books as 'Richard Dare's Venture' that are calculated to
inspire young readers with a determination to succeed in life, and to
choose some honorable walk in which to find that success. The author,
Edward Stratemeyer, has shown a judgment that is altogether too rare in
the makers of books for boys, in that he has avoided that sort of
heroics in the picturing of the life of his hero which deals in
adventures of the daredevil sort. In that respect alone the book
commends itself to the favor of parents who have a regard for the
education of their sons, but the story is sufficiently enlivening and
often thrilling to satisfy the healthful desires of the young
reader."--_Kansas City Star._

"Of standard writers of boys' stories there is quite a list, but those
who have not read any by Edward Stratemeyer have missed a very goodly
thing."--_Boston Ideas._
