Pinocchio, the wayward and mischievous
marionette, through his kindly actions grows to be a real little boy,
with an unselfish loving heart. There are many attractive drawings.

CRUIKSHANK, GEORGE (Illustrator).
The Cruikshank Fairy Book.
Putnam. 2.00
Puss in Boots, Jack and the Bean-Stalk, Hop-o'-my-Thumb, and
Cinderella, are the four famous fairy tales pictured by this famous
illustrator.

JUDD, M.C.
Wigwam Stories.
Ginn. .75
The book is divided into three parts: Sketches of Various Tribes of
North American Indians; Traditions and Myths; and Stories Recently
Told of Hiawatha and Other Heroes. It is interesting and informing.
There are three sketches by Angel de Cora, and many illustrations from
photographs.

LA FONTAINE, JEAN DE.
La Fontaine's Fables.
Translated by Edward Shirley.
Illustrated by C.M. Park and Rene Bull.
Nelson. 1.50
An acceptable selection in verse. There are illustrations in color (p. 65)
as well as in black and white.
"These fables are much more than they appear--
The simplest animals are teachers here.
The bare dull moral weariness soon brings;
The story serves to give it life and wings.
