If they will. 1t strengthens imagina-
tion and cultivatcs a love for beautiful
expression and beautiful things. The
place Eugene Field and James Whit
comb Riley filled in the lives Of some
of us should make parents realize the
value of good poetry for their chill
dren. Besides, school children like to
learn few good poems, and it adds
to the inspiration to be able to find
them themselves instead of having to
depend on teacher for all OF them. A
number of volumes Of chldren's poetry
have been put out this fall.
The Christmas Child, by Nora Archi-
bald Smith (Houghton Miniin), con.
tains some catchy little Christmas
poems and some very much better
poems for children at just any time
in the year. The Mogfoots, by Marvin
NJ. Taylor, contains rhymes for small
er people. These attempt and fall
short of GOOD nursery jingles. Little
drawings by Marjorie Very ACCOMPANY
each rhyme. The Four Seas Company

1t is "told in words by Constance
Howard and told in pictures by Susan
Beatrice Pearse." The pictures are
even more important than the reading
matter. The story could be made up
from the pictures. One of the favor

spots through the story as we'll as in
the title. Peggy is little girl who is
very fond of dolls. Some of the parts
about dolls and little girls with their
dolls are distinctly original. She will.
be liked especially b. children whe

More Of Old GRANNY Fox

A MOTHER volume Of the Green
Meadow Series by Thornton W.
Burgess really needs no comment The
announcement that Little. Brown &
Co. have published the fourth book
IN the series, and it Is about Old
Granny Fox, is enough. The other
characters known to readers and hear
~rs Of the Bedtime Stories, and espe
cially Reddy Fox, play some part in
the stories. What would Granny Fox
be unless she were trying to catch
somebody?
"A Brownie Robinson Crusoe, by Char
lotte B. Herr (Dodd, Mead and Com
rany). is modelled upon the plan Of
the real Robinson Crusoe story, but
the hero is q Brownie who will appeal
to little people. His adventures COM
bine some OF the knowledge children
have of the life about them with the
imaginative life they all live more or
less in the world Of make-believe.
Stories for Good Children, by Lora
B. Peek Iittle, Brown & Coz, Is q
selection Of tales from many lands.
tiindoo, Irish, Chinese, Japanese and
Indian stories are represented. They
are short and simply told. Peggy's
Giant, by M. D. Hillyard "a. c..
Black, Ltd, London, and Macmil-
Ian, New York;, Is one Of the best
stories for little people who like
to have persons read to them that we
have ever come across. Like Tea
Toys and Tale, sent to US earlier
in the season by the same publishers,
this story hits just the right atmos-
phere and tells just the details chill
dren like to have told. We do not
assert that these stories are classics
among children's books. But we do
know that little people like them par
ticularly, and that they make decided
ly wholesome and pleasant reading.
Not the least Of the book Peggy's
Giant are the illustrations, which are
"by Peggy" They are different in
subject matter, Of course, but they re-
mind one Of the illustrations in Kip
ling's Just So Stories.
The Land Of the Great Out-of-Doors.
by Robert Livingston (Houghton Milf
H'n), contains much description Of the
life little brother and sister spent
IN the country. It has little too much
philosophizing and not enough action
to be as popular with children as
might be. However, the good times in
the book are, almost enough to carry
New-York tribune., 1920-11-14

ment of these intricate stories. The
illustrations by Willy Pogany are in
color, and they, too, catch the spirit
Of the legends.
The famous collection Of fairy tales
by Edouard Laboulaye, folk tales of
! Bohemia, Spain, Italy, Brittany, Fin
land and Russia, is published in good
style by Harpcrs. The introduction
by Kate Douglas Wiggin to Laboulaye' s
Fairy Book gives an interesting touch
to the edition.:
There was once a green book, deli
ciously thick, with gilt-edged pages
and the name of the author IN gold
script on the front cover.
Like an antique posy ring. it was q
box of jewels, shop of rarities; it was
veritable Pandora's box, and if YOU
laid warm childish hands upon it and
held it pressed close to your ear you
could hear, IS Pandora did, soft rus
things, murmurings, flutterings and
whlsperings from the fairy folk within.
For this was a fairy book-Edouard
Laboulaye's Tales, and its heroes and
heroines became first the daily COM
panions and then the lifetime possess
sion of the two little girls to whom
it belonged"
"The daily companions, and then the
lifetime possessions" are what fairy
stories contribute to all children who
have access to them. The Laboulaye
stories were translated by Mary l..
Booth and the Harper volume is illus
trated by Edward G. McCandlish.
Other good fairy books received are
The Green Forest Fairy Book, by
Loretta Ellen Brady (Little, Brown E.

For Very Little Folks

ITO BEGIN with the books Of the sea-

for the very little people are the first
to consider. These are not so great in

bedtime and other times.
A now fictional friend may be intro
duced to children in The Story Of
Doctor Doolittle, by Hugh Lofting,
Frederick A. Stokes, publishers. The
kind, inconsistent doctor is an &C.
quaintance almost any child will ap-
preciate. He may not reach the
proportions of Alice or Of some OF the
fairy tale people, or even Of Peter
Rabbit, but he is an entertaining In
dividual to know, and his adventures
remind one of the yarns children some
times make up themselves. He over
comes difficulties in much the same
nonchalant way a child story-teller
slides over discrepancies and sur
mounts impossible situations.

Another luxurious reprint received
last week Is Robinson Crusoe. by Dan

pany). The book is handsomely bound
IN blue and has color illustrations
throughout by N. c, Wyeth. It will

girls, and Robinson Crusoe is another
of those tictional characters without
whom children's education. are son,e-
what lacking.
A de luxe edition Of Old French
Fairy Tales, by Comtesse de Segur
(The Penn Publishing Company, is
almost as much an art book as a book
OF children's stories. The color illus
tretions by Virginia Frances Sterrett
are exceptional in their delicate tint
ing and their graceful, imaginative line,
1t contains five series of short tales
about certain central characters. Blon-
dine, Good Little Henry, Princess Ro-

son. They are beautifully simple in
conception and style.
