"Bessie is a very charming specimen of little girlhood. It is a lovely story of home and nursery life among a family of bright, merry, little children."—Presbyterian.

"A lively entertaining series, which picture child-life to perfection."—Standard.

"We owe to the authoress perhaps the most delightful conception of child-character, under Gospel influences, in all modern juvenile literature."—American Presbyter.
