OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

‘“‘A pretty story. The book will
charm many a girl and boy. The
chromographic illustrations are com-
posed of capital pictures of flowers,
brilliantly and richly coloured alter
nature, and executed with a large
amount of skill and taste. In them-
selves, and as works of art, these pic-
tures are a great deal better than the
gaudy and coarse designs of figures
which we so often see in gift- books.”
—A thencum.

‘““Yhese illustrations are among
the very best of an unusually prolific
period.’ —A/orning Post.

“In the child-world of literature,
few events of equal importance to the
publication of this volume have oc-
curred since ‘Alice in Wonderland’
saw the white rabbit pull its watch
out of its waistcoat pocket.” —Dudblin
Lvening Post.

«A dainty and delightful book. .
The text, of course, is mainly a struc-
ture on which to hang pictures, and
very beautiful the pictures ¢ :
Reproduced with a closeness ‘to the
nals simply astonishing.” —ddan-
chester Guardian.

“‘A little gem of a book, with a
number of very prettily told stories
and a series of really exquisite chro-
mographic pictures of flowers, beau-
tifully drawn and reproduced with
extraordinary fidelity. One of the
most graceful efforts of the season.”
The flour.

‘““Contains some of the finest
coloured plates of flowers ever pub-
lished, and the story is in itself telling
and fresh." —Standard.

  

 

 

 

“‘Another most attractive book.
The stories told by the flowers are
fanciful and pretty ; but the illustra-
tions of the flowers are better still.
‘This, at least, will be the judgment
of grown-up people; but we should
not be surprised if the little ones, for
whom these tales are written, will pre-
fer them to the chromographs, bright-
looking as they are. A prettier book
for young children we have not seen
for a long while.”-Pel/ A/all Gazette.

ia charming volume.” — Daily
News.

“The Little Flower-Scekers tells
the adventures which befel Trot and
Daisy in a wonderful moonlit garden,
among talking apples, hyacinths and
honeysuckles, which find a tongue on
Midsummer I*ve. The coloured pic-
tures are very goed indeed.” — 7zmes.

“Whilst juveniles will be pleased
with the adventures of Trot and Daisy
in their wonderful garden by moon-
light, they can scarcely fail to be
charmed with the very choice chro-
mographs ef flowers with which the
book is furnished.” — 7he City Press.

‘This is undoubtedly a charming
work.” —dinburgh Courant.

“The book is charmingly written,
a strong suppressed element of poetry
runs through it, it has the delicate
wildness of a child’s dream, and is
altogether one of the most fascinating
contributions to the juvenile literature
of the season.” —/*reeman’s Fournal,

“This charming story cannot fail
to please our little ones. It is ex-
quisitely illustrated with chromo-
graphs.’ Sess News-Letter,
