NEW BOOKS FOR GIRLS
By MARGARET ASHMUN
Author of “Isabel Carleton's Year,” etc.
Illustrated, $1.35
The girls who have read and enjoyed the preceding Isabel Carleton stories will be delighted to know that in this new volume, Isabel’s life grows even more interesting, as she goes on through the university. What happens in Jefferson, how the war is brought home to Isabel and the story of two of her friends in particular makes an absorbing narrative.
Isabel Carleton has always been a lovable, straightforward, human girl, and all of these qualities are heightened in the new chronicle.
ANOTHER ELIZABETH BESS STORY
By E. C. SCOTT
Author of “Elizabeth Bess”
Illustrated, $1.35
This book tells more of the delightful little girl who was the central figure in a story published last year which has met with the favor of thousands of young people.
Elizabeth’s active interest in her “fambly” leads her to the doing of unheard of things in their behalf. These experiences and adventures, of which not the least appealing is that growing out of her secret alliance with a fairy king who was to turn stones into gold when his wand, which unfortunately was mislaid, should be recovered, comprise a volume which is different from the average child story.
It is full of whimsical humor and of the sort of entertainment which girls in their teens—and younger and older perhaps—find most satisfying.
