WRIGHT, M.O.
Gray Lady and the Birds.
Macmillan. 1.75
Although as a rule story-telling and science are best kept separate,
their combination in this pleasant tale, written in the interest of
bird-protection, can have only our hearty commendation. It arouses the
interest of children not only by its style, but because there is such
a fund of information about our birds. The volume contains twelve
colored plates and thirty-six full-page illustrations in half-tone.
STORIES
Oh for a Booke and a shadie nooke,
Eyther in-a-doore or out,
With the greene leaves whisp'ring overhede,
Or the Streete cryes all about.
Where I maie Reade all at my ease,
Both of the Newe and Olde,
For a jollie goode Booke, whereon to looke,
Is better to me than Golde.
_Old English Song._
