SPECIMEN CUT TO "LITTLE PRUDY'S FLYAWAY SERIES."

[Ill.u.s.tration: PRUDY KEEPING HOUSE.]

"'My, what a fascinating creature,' said the Man in the Moon, making an eye-gla.s.s with his thumb and fore-finger, and gazing at the lady boarder. 'Are you a widow woman?'"

LITTLE GRANDMOTHER.

"Grandmother Parlen when a little girl is the subject. Of course that was ever so long ago, when there were no lucifer matches, and steel and tinder were used to light fires; when soda and saleratus had never been heard of, but people made their pearl ash by soaking burnt crackers in water; when the dressmaker and the tailor and the shoemaker went from house to house twice a year to make the dresses and coats of the family."--_Transcript_.



LITTLE GRANDFATHER.

"The story of Grandfather Parlen's little boy life, of the days of knee breeches and c.o.c.ked hats, full of odd incidents, queer and quaint sayings, and the customs of 'ye olden time.' These stories of SOPHIE MAY'S are so charmingly written that older folks may well amuse themselves by reading them. The same warm sympathy with childhood, the earnest naturalness, the novel charm of the preceding volumes will be found in this."--_Christian Messenger_.

MISS THISTLEDOWN.

"One of the queerest of the Prudy family. Read the chapter heads and you will see just how much fun there must be in it. 'Fly's Heart,' 'Taking a Nap,' 'Going to the Fair,' 'The Dimple Dot,' 'The Hole in the Home,'

'The Little Bachelor,' 'Fly's Bluebeard,' 'Playing Mamma,' 'b.u.t.ter Spots,' 'Polly's Secret,' 'The Snow Man,' 'The Owl and the Humming-bird,' 'Tales of Hunting Deer,' and 'The Parlen Patchwork.'"

ILl.u.s.tRATION TO "LITTLE PRUDY'S FLYAWAY SERIES"

[Ill.u.s.tration: LITTLE GRANDMOTHER.]

"She played in the old garret, with Dr. Moses to attend her dolls when they were sick."

[Ill.u.s.tration: SIX VOLUMES: PER VOLUME, 75 CENTS.]

FLAXIE FRIZZLE. TWIN COUSINS.

DOCTOR PAPA. FLAXIE'S KITTYLEEN.

LITTLE PITCHERS. FLAXIE GROWING UP.

ILl.u.s.tRATION TO "FLAXIE FRIZZLE SERIES."

[Ill.u.s.tration]

"The next day it rained so hard 'the water couldn't catch its breath'

but the Little Pitchers were eager to go to school."

FLAXIE FRIZZLE.

"FLAXIE FRIZZLE is the successor of the Dotty Dimple, Little Prudy, Flyaway, and the other charming child creations of that inimitable writer for children, SOPHIE MAY. There never was a healthy, fun-loving child born into this world that, at one stage of another of its growth, wouldn't be entertained with SOPHIE MAY'S books. For that matter, it is not safe for older folks to look into them, unless they intend to read them through. FLAXIE FRIZZLE will be found as bright and pleasant reading as the others."--_Boston Journal_.

FLAXIE'S DOCTOR PAPA

"SOPHIE MAY understands children. Her books are not books about them merely. She seems to know precisely how they feel, and she sets them before us, living and breathing in her pages. Flaxie Frizzle is a darling, and her sisters, brothers, and cousins are just the sort of little folks with whom careful mothers would like their boys and girls to a.s.sociate. The story is a bright, breezy, wholesome narrative, and it is full of mirth and gayety, while its moral teaching is excellent."--_Sunday School Times_.

FLAXIE'S LITTLE PITCHERS

"Little Flaxie will secure a warm place in the hearts of all at once.

Here is her little picture. Her name was Mary Gray, but they called her Flaxie Frizzle, because she had light curly hair that frizzled; and she had a curly nose,--that is, her nose curled up at the end a wee bit, just enough to make it look cunning. Her cheeks were rosy red, 'and she was so fat that when Mr. Snow, the postmaster, saw her, he said, "How d'ye do, Mother Bunch?"'"--_Boston Home Journal_.

SPECIMEN OF CUT TO "FLAXIE FRIZZLE SERIES."

[Ill.u.s.tration]

"By and by the colts came to the kitchen window, which was open, and put in their noses to ask for something to eat. Flaxie gave them pieces of bread."

FLAXIE'S TWIN COUSINS.

"Another of those sweet, natural child-stories in which the heroine does and says just such things as actual, live, flesh children do, is the one before us. And what is still better, each incident points a moral. The Ill.u.s.trations are a great addition to the delight of the youthful reader. It is just such beautiful books as this which bring to our minds, in severe contrast, the youth's literature of our early days--the good little boy who died young and the bad little boy who went fis.h.i.+ng on Sunday and died in prison, etc., etc., to the end of the threadbare, improbable chapter."--_Rural New Yorker_.

FLAXIE'S KITTYLEEN.

"KITTYLEEN--one of the Flaxie Frizzle series--is a genuinely helpful as well as delightfully entertaining story: The nine-year-old Flaxie is worried, beloved, and disciplined by a bewitching three-year-old tormenter, whose accomplished mother allows her to prey upon the neighbors. 'Everybody felt the care of Mrs. Garland's children.

There were six of them, and their mother was always painting china. She did it beautifully, with graceful vines trailing over it, and golden b.u.t.terflies ready to alight on sprays of lovely flowers. Sometimes the neighbors thought it would be a fine thing if she would keep her little ones at home rather more; but, if she had done that, she could not have painted china.'"--_Chicago Tribune_.

FLAXIE GROWING UP.

"No more charming stories for the little ones were ever written than those comprised in the three series which have for several years past been from time to time added to juvenile literature by SOPHIE MAY. They have received the unqualified praise of many of the most practical scholars of New England for their charming simplicity and purity of sentiment. The delightful story shows the gradual improvement of dear little Flaxie's character under the various disciplines of child-life and the sweet influence of a good and happy home. The ill.u.s.trations are charming pictures."--_Home Journal_.
