PHEBE: HER PROFESSION. By Anna Chapin Ray.
Miss Ray’s work draws instant comparison with the best of Miss Alcott’s; first, because she has the same genuine sympathy with boy and girl life; secondly, because she creates real characters, individual and natural, like the young people one knows, actually working out the same kind of problems; and, finally, because her style of writing is equally unaffected and straightforward.
She builds upon clearly thought-out convictions, and the influence of the book will be wholly for good, tending toward a sane, wholesome view of life generally. There is a deal of fun in it too. In short, this is one of the few books written for young people into the making of which has gone a vigor and grace such as one asks for in a good story for older people.
