While preparing "Pollyanna" for the screen, Miss Pickford said
enthusiastically that it was the best picture she had ever made in
her life, and the success of the picture on the screen has amply
justified her statement. Mary Pickford's interpretation of the beloved
little heroine as shown in the illustrations, adds immeasurably to
the intrinsic charm of this popular story.
POLLYANNA GROWS UP: The Second GLAD Book, Trade Mark (250,000)
Cloth decorative, 12mo, illustrated, $1.90
When the story of POLLYANNA told in The _Glad_ Book was ended, a great
cry of regret for the vanishing "Glad Girl" went up all over the
country--and other countries, too. Now POLLYANNA appears again, just as
sweet and joyous-hearted, more grown up and more lovable.
"Take away frowns! Put down the worries! Stop fidgeting and
disagreeing and grumbling! Cheer up, everybody! POLLYANNA has come
back!"--_Christian Herald._
MISS BILLY (93rd thousand)
Cloth decorative, with a frontispiece in full color from a painting by G.
Tyng, $1.90
"There is something altogether fascinating about 'Miss Billy,' some
inexplicable feminine characteristic that seems to demand the individual
attention of the reader from the moment we open the book until we
reluctantly turn the last page."--_Boston Transcript._
MISS BILLY'S DECISION (78th thousand)
Cloth decorative, with a frontispiece in full color from a painting by

Cloth decorative, with a frontispiece in full color from a painting by W.
Haskell Coffin, $1.90

just as glad as the younger figure and radiates just as much gladness.
She disseminates joy so naturally that we wonder why all girls are not
like her."--_Boston Transcript._
SIX STAR RANCH (45th thousand)
Cloth decorative, 12mo, illustrated by R. Farrington Elwell, $1.90

Philosophy' with irresistible success. The book is one of the kindliest
things, if not the best, that the author of the Pollyanna books has
done. It is a welcome addition to the fast-growing family of _Glad_
Books."--_Howard Russell Bangs in the Boston Post._
