“Seldom has a book of songs for children appealed so directly to the children themselves.” — Chicago Tribune.

This delightful book contains twelve songs of much beauty and simplicity, each accompanied by illustrations printed in four colors. These pictures are characterized by an old-fashioned quaintness and humor; the “little boys” belong to the long ago, rather than to the present prevailing school of child-life illustration. In the verses is found, to a remarkable degree, that indefinable understanding of the way that little minds think and feel which is a gift of the very few.

The attractive binding of flowered chintz completés a volume which for charming originality and freshness is not surpassed by any gift-book of the present season.
Price $1.25 net.
