THE CHILD'S STORY BOOK
OF
BIRDS.

With Twenty-four Engravings. Square 16mo.,
cloth, gilt.

This beautiful little volume is written by the same author,
and in the same familiar, interesting style, as “The Child's
Story Book of Animals.” It is printed, bound, and illustrated
to match that popular volume, and at the same price.

A critic has said of them, “They are just the books that
have been wanted; no dry, scientific descriptions of animals,
that the little folks cannot understand, but sketches and stories
told in a delightful style, which must please the juveniles.
They made us feel like youngsters again whilst reading them.
We know of no better books to place in their hands, not only
to amuse but to instruct them.”
