Prof. I.T. HEADLAND'S FASCINATING CHILDREN'S BOOKS
* * * * *
Chinese Mother Goose Rhymes
Translated and illustrated by Prof. Headland of Peking University. Small
quarto, boards, net $1.00
"As full of sweets as a Canton jar of sugared ginger. It is perfectly
delightful to look at, for without, and within on every page, are rolling,
tumbling, playing Chinese little folks. This book ought to do a great deal
toward awakening sympathy and affection for the East."--_S.S. Times_.
The Chinese Boy and Girl
Fully illustrated. Quarto, boards, decorated, net $1.00
"'Chinese Mother Goose' opened a large window through which we may see
much that has been hidden. Now comes the 'Chinese Boy and Girl,' with
another revelation, which is even more an introduction to the nursery, the
school-room, the play ground. It is a cheery picture that it gives of the
little folk of that empire, and cannot fail to make their far-away mates
think more kindly of them. The hundred or more illustrations from
photographs specially selected by Professor Headland, rival the artistic
excellence of his earlier book."--_Worcester Spy_.
_The "Billy Topsail" Books_
By NORMAN DUNCAN
_The Adventures of Billy Topsail_
Illustrated, cloth, $1.50
"There was no need to invent conditions or imagine situations. The
life of any lad of Billy Topsail's years up there is sufficiently
romantic. It is this skill in the portrayal of actual conditions that
lie ready to the hand of the intelligent observer that makes Mr.
Duncan's Newfoundland stories so noteworthy. 'The Adventures of Billy
Topsail' is a wonderful book."--_Brooklyn Eagle._
