Author: Westrup, Elizabeth:
Title: Elizabeth's Children.
Description: London, The Bodley Head, 1903 H/B beige cloth bds, Good, simple picture on upper bd, gilt lettering to spine, a little fraying to spine tips, contents sound and tight, front and rear hinges cracking but holding, scattering of age-spotting throughout, pp364. This story has been compared to that of 'Helen's Babies'. It is "...amusing without a flagging page, and each of the three children is a small character in his own way, never ridiculous... The reader would be very glad to know 'our Monsieur' in real life, the young lady whom his small nephews help him to win after an original fashion, and the three whole boys."
