Gwen. By Penelope Leslie. (National Society's Depository.) —The story of

Gwendolyn and Daniel, of their visit to their grandmother who lived in the country, and of their escapade when they returned to Wimbledon is pleasantly told. Dan, who has a decided taste for mischief, often persuades Gwen to share in his schemes, though she is inclined to oppose them. It is just the book for children, and points an excellent moral.
