A YORK AND A LANCASTER ROSE, by Anne Kearney, author of "Castle Daly,"
"Oldbury," etc.; published by Macmillan & Co., New York. This book is
by an English author, and is a charming picture of family life, which
will interest girls of thirteen and fifteen years of age. The story is
of two girls, each named Rose, the one rich and the other poor; and
tells how they were brought together, and the influence they exercised
upon each other, and relates, in a very pleasant way, the various
adventures, sayings, and doings of their brothers and sisters.
THE CUCKOO CLOCK, by Ennis Graham, author of "Carrots" and "Tell me a
Story"; published by Macmillan & Co. This volume is well illustrated by
Walter Crane. The cuckoo in an old clock makes friends with a lonely
little girl, and causes her to have a good time, and to see many
wonderful things. One of the prettiest parts of the story is the
account of the making of the clock in the German home of the little
girl's grandmother.
SLICES OF MOTHER GOOSE, SERVED WITH SAUCE BY "CHAMP," is the title of a
set of large cards, admirably printed in black and red, and giving new
funny versions of Mother Goose rhymes, by Alice Parkman, illustrated
with capital pictures and silhouettes by Mr.
