"The Red Book of Animal Storms," selected and edited by Mr. Andrew Lang will be much appreciated by the young folk. The stones are more interesting than voracious, and, indeed, Mr. Lang is careful to notify all and sundry that the book is not altogether scientific. Ww have yet to learn, however, that this is a valid objection to children's stories. The writers have laid all beasts of all times under contribution, from the prehistoric pterodactyl down to the kangaroo of the present day and the bunyip and the sea serpent of tomorrow. This book is fully illustrated and annotated with a rare extensive biographical sketch of the author, Andrew Lang, written by Sir Edmund Gosse, CB, a contemporary poet and writer.

Excerpt from The Red Book of Animal Stories To Miss Sybil Corbet Author of 'Animal Land' 'Sybil's Garden of Pleasant Beasts' and 'Epiotic Poems' Sybil, the Beasts we bring to you Are not so friendly, not so odd, As those that all amazed we view, The brutes created by your nod - The Wuss, the Azorkon, and the Pod; But then our tales are true! Fauna of fancy, one and all Obey your happy voice, we know; A garden zoological Is all around, where'er you go. Mellys and Kanks walk to and fro, And Dids attend your call. We have but common wolves and bears, Lion and leopard, hawk and hind, Tigers, and crocodiles, and hares: But yet they hope you will be kind, And mark with sympathetic mind These moving tales of theirs.
