The two stories are a mixture of the sublime and the
ridiculous; the foibles and fancies of childhood, interspersed with
humor and pathos.

Azalea
_By_ ELIA W. PEATTIE
The first book of the "Blue Ridge" Series
Azalea is the heroine of a good, wholesome story that will appeal to
every mother as the sort of book she would like her daughter to read. In
the homy McBirneys of Mt. Tennyson, down in the Blue Ridge country, and
their hearty mountain neighbors, girl readers will find new friends they
will be glad to make old friends.
This book marks a distinct advance in the quality of books offered for
girls. No lack of action--no sacrifice of charm.
_Four half-tone illustrations from drawings by Hazel
Roberts. Attractive cover design, $1.00._

The second title in THE BLUE RIDGE SERIES will be published in 1913

ANNABEL
_By_ SUSANNE METCALF
A GIRLS' book with a clever, quick-moving plot is unusual. ANNABEL is
that kind. The heroine is a lovable girl, but one with plenty of
snap--her red hair testifies to that. Her friend, Will Carden, too, is a
boy of unusual qualities, as is apparent in everything he does.
