point. Among these the following have proved
themselves good:

by Sidney Lee and illustrations by Gordon Browne. 8vo. Cloth, 6_s._

by Gertrude Hammond. 8vo. Cloth, $1.50. Crowell.
*"Shakespeare's Stories of the English Kings." Illustrated in colour by
Gertrude Hammond. 8vo. Cloth, $1.50. Crowell. This and the preceding
volume are rich in excerpts from the plays. After Lamb has been
appreciated, the reading of these stories will help the boy along toward
the plays in the original text.
