PENN SHIRLEY'S STORIES

  FOR THE LITTLE ONES

  Miss Penn Shirley is a very graceful interpreter of child-life. Shethoroughly understands how to reach out to the tender chord of thelittle one's feelings, and to interest her in the noble life of heryoung companions. Her stories are full of bright lessons, but they donot take on the character of moralizing sermons. Her keen observationand ready sympathy teach her how to deal with the little ones in helpingthem to understand the lessons of life. Her stories are simple andunaffected.--_Boston Herald_.
