The child is to put this volume, not at the lesson-book end of
the shelf, but with Robinson Crusoe and the like. So the preface
suggests, and rightly. It is eminently readable, a success, (p. 96)
we should say, in what looks much easier than it is, telling a
story in simple words.--_The Spectator._
A history of the Mother Country, from earliest legendary times
delightfully related. The thirty full-page illustrations in color add
to its attraction.

Stories of William Tell and His Friends.
