Butler & Tanner The Selwood Printing Works, Frome, and London. WORKS BY ETHEL TURNER (MRS. H. R. CURLEWIS) UNIFORM WITH THIS VOLUME. _Crown 8vo, cloth gilt, bevelled boards, gilt edges, 3s. 6d._ THE STOLEN VOYAGE. "Miss Ethel Turner is Miss Alcott's true successor. The same healthy, spirited tone is visible, which boys and girls recognized and were grateful for in 'Little Women' and 'Little Men,' the same absence of primness, and the same love of adventure."--_The Bookman._ A WHITE ROOF TREE.

She has a fresh and tender touch indeed, which has singled her out as the happy successor of Miss Alcott, and won for her the golden opinions of her juvenile readers. Her charming new story cannot but multiply her young friends, and enable them to pass many more delightful hours under the witchery of her spell."--_The Leicester Post._ MOTHER'S LITTLE GIRL. Illustrations by A. J. Johnson. "A beautiful story.... One that draws out all the author's wonderful capacities for direct and naturally emotional and sentimental writing. The grown-ups, the little folks, and their every-day experiences, are portrayed and described with a realism that brings them very near to the reader, affecting the feelings and impressing the memory."--_The Dundee Advertiser._ BETTY & CO. Illustrated. "Miss Ethel Turner has lost none of her freshness, her tenderness, her charm, after so many years' writing.... She comes very near genius in depicting child-life, and she is Australian to the core."--_The Queen._ LITTLE MOTHER MEG. Illustrations by A. J. Johnson. This book is another of the Author's delightful stories of child life, full of the same charms which brought into popularity her earlier stories; this new story is bound to enhance her reputation as one who can picture child life in all its natural innocence.
