Better than Toys for Girls and Boys. By T. Pym.

(Wells Gardner, Darton, and Co.)—The idea of this book is to give a coloured drawing on one page and the same uncoloured on the other, for young people to fill in. It is an exercise not so easy as it looks, which will pleasantly occupy some vacant hours. To keep the brush within the lines, and to imitate precisely the colours, will require some patience and accuracy of touch.
