Goops, and How to be Them.
More Goops, and How Not to be Them.
Goop Tales.
The Lively City o'Ligg.
The Burgess Nonsense Book.
This section is necessarily more incomplete than any of the others, since it is impossible to keep pace with the great number of stories of this kind which are published every Christmas. But a few more may be added:--

Boy and Schoolboy Stories
In this section are placed stories of modern boys, either at home or at school, and their ordinary home or school adventures. Among the best are--
Tom Sawyer By Mark Twain.
and
Bevis By Richard Jefferies.
Others are--
The Story of a Bad Boy By T. B. Aldrich.
My Boyhood " H. C. Barkley.
The Swan and her Crew " G. C. Davies.
Captain Chap " Frank R. Stockton.
The Tinkham Brothers' Tidemill " J. T. Trowbridge.
The best school story will probable always be
Tom Brown's School Days By T. Hughes.
Among the books of this kind meant rather for grownup readers, but read also by boys, are--
Huckleberry Finn By Mark Twain.
Frank Fairlegh " F. E. Smedley.
The Interpreter " Whyte Melville.
The Human Boy " Eden Phillpots.
Vice Versa " F. Anstey.
Adventure Stories
This is the largest group of books usually described as "for boys,"
although girls often read them too with hardly less interest. The first place in this cla.s.s will probably always be held by Defoe's
Robinson Crusoe,
and it is likely that most votes for second place would go to
The Swiss Family Robinson.
After these we come to modern authors whose books have been written especially for boys, first among whom is the late Mr. R. M.
Ballantyne, the author of, among numerous other books,
The Coral Island.
The Gorilla Hunters.
The Dog Crusoe.
The Pirate City.
Ungava.
The Wild Man of the West.
The Iron Horse.
Fighting the Flames.
Erling the Bold.
Martin Rattler.
The Fur Traders.
The Red Man's Revenge.
