the young people and their elders, extremely funny both in text and illustrations."--Boston Express. Little Lucy's Wonderful Globe. By Charlotte M. Yonge. "This story is unique among tales intended for children, alike for pleasant instruction, quaintness of humor, gentle pathos, and the subtlety with which lessons moral and otherwise are conveyed to children, and perhaps to their seniors as well."--The Spectator.
