_Schoolmaster_.--"Young people will revel in this most interesting and original story. The five young Pendletons are much as other children in a large family, varied in their ideas, quaint in their tastes, and wont to get into mischief at every turn. They are withal devoted to one another and to their home, and although often 'naughty,' are not by any means 'bad.' The interest in the doings of these youngsters is remarkably well sustained, and each chapter seems better than the last.

With not a single dull page from start to finish and with twelve charming ill.u.s.trations, the book makes an ideal reward for either boys or girls."

By AMY LE FEUVRE

Robin's Heritage

Ill.u.s.trated by GORDON BROWNE. 2s.

Robin, the little hero of Miss Amy Le Feuvre's latest book, is a charming creation. He is certainly one of the most lovable of the boy and girl characters in her books, whose adventures have given delight to so many thousands of little readers.

Christina and the Boys

Ill.u.s.trated. 2s.

This is a splendid story for boys and girls. All who have read Miss Le Feuvre's other books will want to read this. It is a story of three children; one from England, another from Scotland, the third from Wales. They are all so jolly that it is difficult to say which of the three will be the favourite with young readers.

Roses

Ill.u.s.trated. 2s.

This story introduces us to Mrs. Fitzherbert, a dear little old lady with snow-white hair, as she moves among the sweet scents and sounds of her rose garden. She lives in a quaint old-fashioned house with cas.e.m.e.nt windows and deep window seats, old oak staircase and panelled rooms. And into the midst of this secluded scene comes Dimple--her real name is Isabella, but she will not allow anybody to call her by that name on any account--whose father, owing to ill-fortune, has had to go abroad. How Dimple wins the hearts of all in her new home is told by Miss Le Feuvre in this little book.

His Big Opportunity

Ill.u.s.trated. 2s.

The two princ.i.p.al characters in this book are Roy and Dudley--two cousins. Both are anxious to become heroes, and they are constantly on the look-out for an opportunity to do some good. This leads them, one day, to pay a friendly visit to a sick man. They cannot get in by the door, so they clamber in by the window, greatly to the alarm of the invalid, who takes them for house-breakers. The story tells how, when their big opportunity does arrive, they are able to seize it and turn it to account.
