LOUISA M. ALCOTT'S WRITINGS.
Miss Alcott is really a benefactor of households.—H. H.
Miss Alcott has a faculty of entering into the lives and feelings of children that is conspicuously wanting in most writers who address them; and to this cause, to the consciousness among her readers that they are hearing about people like themselves, instead of abstract qualities labelled with names, the popularity of her books is due.—Mrs. Sarah J. Hale.
Dear Aunt Jo! You are embalmed in the thoughts and loves of thousands of little men and women.—Exchange.
