THE TWINKLE TALES
SIX CHARMING NEW STORIES FOR CHILDREN
BY LAURA BANCROFT
Miss Bancroft has a delightful vein of humor of the quaint, sparkling
variety which readily appeals to children of all ages. Several critics
who have read _The Twinkle Tales_ favorably compare Miss Bancroft's
stories to Mr. Baum's works.
For this series the clever artist, _Maginel Wright Enright_ has made
over one hundred special drawings admirably illustrating the text. The
pictures, all full page, are beautifully reproduced in many colors,
each book containing fifteen pictures and a decorated title page. The
bindings are of imported vellum stamped in four colors with striking
designs.
_The Twinkle Tales_ are entertaining to read; splendidly illustrated;
beautiful in appearance; perfectly printed on fine paper; excellently
well bound. Price 50 cents per volume.
