LOUISA M. ALCOTT'S WRITINGS.
Wiss Alcott is really a benefactor of households. —
H. H.
Miss Alcott has a faculty of entering into the lives and feelings of children
that ts conspicuously wanting in most writers who address them;
and to this
cause, to the consciousness among her readers that they are hearing about people like iremselves, instead of abstract qualities labelled with names, tht popularity af her books is due.—MRS. SARAH J. HALE.
