A NEW FAIRY BOOK
A charming little publication for children has been produced by the Shell Company of New Zealand Limited for free .distribution on application throughout the Dominion. The illustrations have been well carried out by jliss Sheila Hawkins, and a great amount of attention has been paid to detail. The half-dozen plates have been carried out in four colours, and there is a generous sprinkling of black and white drawings. The simple story is that which has appealed to the child mind since time immemorial—of fairies and goblins, and the small girl who is waylaid and ushered into the inner sanctums of fairy life. It promises to have a wide appeal wherever young folk are gathered together—at kindergarten, at home, and at play. The book is-well prepared on tinted art paper, and is generally significant as indicating the upward trend of commercial publications in this country. A copy of the booklet is obtainable on application to the Shell Company, P.O. Box 1663, Wellington.
