lovable characters, only Jim is the more so; and the scrapes he gets
into and the trials he endures will, no doubt, interest a large circle
of young readers."--Church Times.

the interest of this amusing volume for children. Jack falls asleep
with his mind full of the subject of the fishpond, and is very much

he goes through wonderful and edifying adventures. A handsome and
pleasant book."--Literary World.
