Punch's Pocket-Book for 1877 (Punch Office) is better than usual.

The illustrations are very good, and the parody on "Daniel Deronda" is written with something of Bret Harte's skill in the parodying of novelists. It appears, however, on the whole, less well adapted for children than most of the previous pocket-books, though some of the illustrations are very amusing.
