“Mr. Johnson has shown in this book capabilities of a really high quality, for his story abounds with humor, and there are endless bits of quiet fun in it, which bring out the hearty laugh, even when it is read by older people.  It is a capital book for boys.”—­NEW YORK TIMES.

Mrs. Burton Harrison’s Tales.

BRIC-A-BRAC STORIES.  With 24 illustrations by Walter Crane. 12mo, $1.50.

“When the little boy, for whose benefit the various articles of bric-a-brac in his father’s drawing-room relate stories appropriate to their several native countries, exclaims at the conclusion of one of them:  ‘I almost think there can’t be a better one than that!’ the reader, of whatever age, will probably feel inclined to agree with him.  Upon the whole, it is to be wished that every boy and girl might become acquainted with the contents of this book.”—­JULIAN HAWTHORNE.

THE OLD FASHIONED FAIRY BOOK.  Illustrated by ROSINA EMMET, 16mo, $1.25.

“The little ones, who so willingly go back with us to ’Jack the Giant Killer,’ ‘Bluebeard,’ and the kindred stories of our childhood, will gladly welcome Mrs. Burton Harrison’s ‘Old-Fashioned Fairy Tales.’  The graceful pencil of Miss Rosina Emmet has given a pictorial interest to the book.”—­FRANK R. STOCKTON.

Thomas Nelson Page’s Two Books.

AMONG THE CAMPS:  OR, YOUNG PEOPLE’S STORIES OF THE WAR.  With 8 full-page illustrations.  Square, 8vo, $1.50.

“They are five in number, each having reference to some incident of the Civil War.  A vein of mingled pathos and humor runs through them all, and greatly heightens the charm of them.  It is the early experience of the author himself, doubtless, which makes his pictures of life in a Southern home during the great struggle so vivid and truthful.”—­THE NATION.

TWO LITTLE CONFEDERATES.  With 8 full-page illustrations by KEMBLE and REDWOOD.  Square, 8vo, $1.50.

“Mr. Page was ‘raised’ in Virginia, and he knows the ‘darkey’ of the South better than any one who writes about them.  And he knows ’white folks,’ too, and his stories, whether for old or young people, have the charm of sincerity and beauty and reality.”—­HARPER’S YOUNG PEOPLE.
