NURSERY RHYMES
Not since the days of Kate Greenaway have the old nursery favourites
been so daintily presented. Little Jack Horner, Jack Sprat, Tom Tucker,
Old King Cole and their illustrious company are all here. The type is
large and well-arranged, and by means of the full Index of First Lines
any rhyme can be found in a moment.
FAIRY TALES
Here again are all the immortals—old and yet ever new—Red Riding Hood,
Cinderella, Puss-in-Boots, the redoubtable Bluebeard and a host of
others. The text has been carefully edited in such a way that the
youngest child can understand and enjoy the stories.

ALICE’S ADVENTURES IN
WONDERLAND
The edition of Lewis Carroll’s immortal masterpiece. Never has an artist
so successfully conceived the characters from a child’s point of view,
or given more happy expression to the sly humour and mock seriousness of
the story. This dainty volume, with its wealth of coloured plates, is
easily superior to editions published at three and four times the price.
HANS ANDERSEN’S
FAIRY STORIES
A selection of the stories which most appeal to younger children,
including such favourites as “The Ugly Duckling,” “The Little Mermaid,”
“The Tinder Box,” “The Emperor’s New Clothes,” “The Snow Queen,” and
others. The great Danish story-teller has a wonderful hold on the
affections of young people, and this book is sure to please.
