"Little Flo', with her industry and skill in 'translating' old
boots and shoes, her motherly instincts and efforts to keep
her young brother Dick, the crossing-sweeper, honest, because
mother had made them promise to be so when she died; the
good-natured, agreeable, clever young thief Jenks, the tempter
and beguiler of poor Dick; and, above all, the dear dog Scamp,
with his knowing ways and soft brown eyes, are all as true to
life and as touchingly set forth as any heart could desire,
beguiling the reader into smiles and tears, and into sympathy
with them all."--_Athenæum._
