There is a charm about the writings of both of these authors that will 

 appeal strongly to all lovers of good literature, and especially so to all who 

 love at once to read the printed page and the book of nature. 



" Birds of Song and Story," by Elizabeth and Joseph Grinnell, contains a series of 

 interesting- sketches of the habits and peculiarities of birds. Appropriate poetical quota- 

 tions relating to different songsters, written by well-known poets, are scattered through 

 the volume. Many anecdotes, personal observations and historical references enrich the 

 sketches. The work is especially written for children, using simple language and a pleas- 

 ing style of diction likely to hold the attention of the reading boy or girl. The illustra- 

 tions are excellent, being colored photographs of birds in natural surroundings in the 

 grass, trees or beside the nest. The coloring is true to nature and an acquaintance with 

 the pictures will aid the child in identifying the birds in the trees. 



Please send me 5 copies of Birds of Song and Story, Grinnell, by express; 45 copies
