MRS. ALFRED GATTY’S POPULAR WORKS.

Reading edition

“We should not be doing justice to the highest class of juvenile fiction, were we to omit as particularly worthy of attention at this season, the whole series of Mrs. Gatty’s admirable books. They are quite sui generis, and deserve the widest possible circulation.”—Literary Churchman.

Parables from Nature. First Series. 16mo. with Four Illustrations. Sixth Edition. 1s. 6d.

“Stand alone in the sweetness of their stories, the truth of their moral, and the simple beauty of their language.”—Literary Churchman.

Parables from Nature. Second Series. 16mo. with Four Illustrations. Second Edition. 2s.

“We know of no rivals to these ‘Parables’ in the English language, and feel them to be more genial and less solemn than, though as high in aim as, ‘Adams’s Allegories.’”—Era.

The Two together in One Volume, 3s. 6d.

Worlds not Realized. 16mo. with Frontispiece. Second Edition. 2s.

“We believe few youthful readers—we might perhaps omit the epithet youthful—will close this interesting little volume without being wiser and better for its perusal.”—Notes and Queries.

“Earnest and beautiful.”—Monthly Packet.

The Fairy Godmothers and other Tales. Second and Cheaper Edition. Fcap. 8vo. with Frontispiece. 2s. 6d.

Legendary Tales. Fcap. 8vo. with Illustrations by “Phiz.” 5s.

“Exceedingly well told, and full of talent.”—Ecclesiastic.

The Poor Incumbent. Fcap. 8vo. sewed, 1s.; cloth, 1s. 6d.

“Worked up in a masterly manner, and worthy of perusal from its truthful and unexaggerated spirit.”—Athenæum.

Aunt Judy’s Tales. Fcap. 8vo. with Illustrations by Clara S. Lane. 3s. 6d.

“Aunt Judy is the essence of the excellencies of all the aunts in Christendom, and we only wish that every large family of little people had such a delightful relative to amuse, instruct, direct, and govern them. Aunt Judy is a wag, too.”—Athenæum.
