"Every thick, creamy page is embellished by some gems of art. Sometimes
it is but a dash and a few trembling strokes; at others an impressive
landscape, but in all and through all runs the master touch. Miss Jerome
has the genius of an Angelo, and the execution of a Guido. The beauty of
the sketches will be apparent to all, having been taken from our
unrivalled New England scenery."--_Washington Chronicle._
=THE MESSAGE OF THE BLUEBIRD, Told to Me to Tell
to Others.= Original illustrations engraved on
wood by ANDREW. Cloth and gold, $2.00; palatine
boards, ribbon ornaments, $1.00.
"In its new bindings is one of the daintiest combinations of song and
illustration ever published, exhibiting in a marked degree the fine
poetic taste and wonderfully artistic touch which render this author's
works so popular. The pictures are exquisite, and the verses exceedingly
graceful, appealing to the highest sensibilities. The little volume
ranks among the choicest of holiday souvenirs, and is beautiful and
pleasing."--_Boston Transcript._
