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_ |
