MR. I. ZANGWILL IN PALL MALL MAGAZINE.--'No more
enjoyable interpretation of the child's mind has
been accorded us since Stevenson's "Child's Garden
of Verses."
MR. A. C. SWINBURNE IN THE DAILY CHRONICLE
SAYS,--'The art of writing adequately and
acceptively about children is among the rarest and
most precious of all arts. . . . "The Golden Age" is
one of the few books which are well-nigh too
praiseworthy for praise.'
THE NATIONAL OBSERVER.--'If there is a man or
woman living who cannot read this book with
delight, to him or her we offer our pity and
compassion.'
PROFESSOR J. SULLY.--'Quite lately more than one
serious attempt has been made to give childhood
its due in fiction. A notable instance is Mr.
Kenneth Grahame's pictures from child-life.'
