Mr. Wind and Madam Rain.
Illustrated by Charles Bennett.
Putnam. 2.00
A famous Breton folk-tale which is made additionally attractive by the
unusual quality of the illustrations.
I will not say that I have added nothing to the unconnected
recitals of the Breton peasants, ... but I have added only what
was necessary to link together the different events, and to
supply passages that were entirely wanting.--_Preface._
PAINE, A.B.
The Hollow Tree and Deep Woods Book.
Illustrated by J.M. Conde.
Harper. 1.50
Mr. Paine writes in his delightful vein of Mr. Coon, Mr. Possum, and
Mr. Crow. The book is always funny, and Mr. Conde's pictures are in
their way as good as the text.
WILLISTON, T.P.
Japanese Fairy Tales.
Illustrated by Sanchi Ogawa.
Rand. .50
These eight wonder stories incidentally illustrate the every-day (p. 67)
life of the people. The Japanese pictures are reproduced in color.
POETRY, COLLECTIONS OF POETRY AND PROSE, AND STORIES ADAPTED FROM
GREAT AUTHORS.
So, in this matter of literature for the young, the influence of
the home teaching is enormous; all the school can do pales before
it.
