A story for girls of boarding-school life, full of incident and
wholesome characterization, with delightfully cozy scenes of indoor
enjoyment and an exciting description of a Hallowe’en escapade.
By OTTILIE A. LILJENCRANTZ.
The Vinland Champions.
Illustrated by the KINNEYS. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
A rousing good boy’s book with plenty of dash and go, and a glimpse of
the wild, free life of the Vikings in it. Every school-boy has heard of
the vague rumor that the Norsemen discovered America before Christopher
Columbus. This story tells of the party of one hundred Icelanders who
went and dwelt there and called it the “Peace Land.”
By JULIE M. LIPPMANN.
Every-Day Girls.
Illustrated in colors. 12mo. Cloth, $1.50.
The best book for girls that has appeared in years; it has all the
charm and sweetness that is contained in “Little Women.” It is not
merely a chronicle of events, however, but teaches a valuable lesson.
The girls are sweet and lovely, and quarrelsome and impulsive, just as
every-day girls are. They have a hard and exciting time, and they fight
a battle and win it. It is a charming, wholesome book.
D. APPLETON AND COMPANY, NEW YORK.
