As an art-book delighting old and young, Kate Greenaway's "Marigold Garden", has few equals. Her quaintly-funny style is so well known that it needs little description. This book follows in the same lines as her numerous former triumphs. Boys and girls in the regulation Greenaway costumes deport themselves in many amusing ways. Their coloring is strictly aesthetic and artistic, and also strictly "Greenaway." The lady's rhymes accompanying the pictures are bright and witty, and no less attractive than her art work. Edmund Evans, who is the printer of this handsome book, has turned out a beautiful example of color-printing.
