Or "Peggy Pepper-Pot." A Story. By ESME STUART, author of "Isabeau's
Hero," &c. With 4 full-page Illustrations in black and tint. Crown 8vo,
cloth extra, 2_s._ 6_d._
A pleasing narration of the failures of Peggy Fenwick, who, before
her sixteenth birthday, had to assume the responsible position of
head of her father's house. The story abounds in capitally told
domestic adventures; and while it has an excellent moral purpose, it
is brimful of fun and never flags in interest.
"Instead of drawing a heroine of romance Esme Stuart may be
commended for producing a girl far more true to real life, who will
put no nonsense into young heads."--_Graphic._
"There is not a dull page in it; while it is so graphically written
and abounds in such touches of genuine humour and innocent fun that
when we reach the end of the book we wish it were longer."--_Freeman._
