The Green Fairy Book.
Longmans. 2.00
This, the third of the colored fairy books, contains, as do the
others, tales from many sources, among them The Half-Chick, The Magic
Swan, and King Kojata.
PYLE, HOWARD.
The Story of King Arthur and His Knights.
Illustrated by the Author.
Scribner. 2.50
Mr. Pyle has related these great legends right worthily. The
illustrations are full of interest, and while the text is suited to a
narrative of this early period, it is well within childish
comprehension.
Blow trumpet, for the world is white with May;
Blow trumpet, the long night hath roll'd away!
Blow thro' the living world--"Let the King reign."
"Shall Rome or Heathen rule in Arthur's realm?
Flash brand and lance, fall battleaxe upon helm,
Fall battleaxe, and flash brand! Let the King reign."
TENNYSON.
RUSKIN, JOHN. (p. 103)
The King of the Golden River.
Heath. .20
An exquisite legend, beautiful in spirit and language.
There have been written in our English language a few tales
bearing a rich moral lesson that are an unfailing source of
delight, alike to childhood and to youth, and that are at the
same time not without interest to the adult.
