Anabridged story ofLittle Paul, from Dombey and Son,edited by F. (DanaEstes), makes de-lightfu 1 reading forthe young or old. SnowlandFolk, by Robert , and TheSnow Baby (F. ) introduces(it is one book) usinto scenes near (ap-proximately) theNorth Pole, and thepictures are strik-ingly novel. Equal-ly authentic and information-giving is Stories of In-ventors, by Russell Doubleday (Doubleday, Page &Co.). The printing is very good of the color pictures in Pets, by Alice Calhoun Haines, pictures by LouisRhead (F. A. Stokes), and there are lots of animals inthem, so thev are pretty sure to interest the Illustration (reduced) from theMixed Beasts.
