I also spend many happy moments reading its contents.
I wish you would send me the names of a few good books. I do not
want anything like fairy tales, but something on the order of
"Six Girls," by Miss Irving, or "Little Women"; or I would be
more pleased with the names of a few good boarding-school
stories. I would also like you to explain the relationship
between Noah and Daniel Webster.
Hoping I will receive an answer in a short time, I remain,
Your interested reader,
CINCINNATI, O., Feb. 22d, 1897. GRACE G.
DEAR GRACE:
We are very glad you take pleasure in THE GREAT ROUND WORLD, and that you
find it useful.
We are told by a girl who is fond of reading, that "A World of Girls," by
Mead, is the most delightful school story ever written.
"Jackanapes," "Six to Sixteen," "A Flat-Iron for a Farthing," are all
three by Mrs. Ewing, and are charming books.
"An Old-Fashioned Girl," and Miss Yonge's "Pillars of the House," are both
interesting.
