=Me and Toddlekins= is a story told by “Me,” whose other name is Mew-mew, and written down by Margaret Johnson, with cunning pictures of “Me” and Toddlekins, and their doings, drawn by the same Margaret Johnson.
=Six New Finger Plays= will be contributed by Emilie Poulsson. The instant popularity of the first series of Finger Plays, among little children, mothers, and kindergarten teachers, has tempted Miss Poulsson to prepare six more; the verses are delightfully amusing and graceful, and the pictorial instructions showing how to play the Plays, and the pictures themselves, will be by the same artist, Mr. L. J. Bridgman.
=Allie and the Crickets= will be the subject of six dear little stories that the crickets told to Baby Allie—some on the hearth as she sat in her mother’s lap at twilight, some when she was at play out in the sunny fields—very cunning little stories all of them (which Clara Doty Bates overheard and has related for other babies). Many pictures.
BABYLAND will be full of pictures, too, big and beautiful, little and funny; and it will be printed in large clear black letters, as usual, on strong fine paper, and have pretty pink covers. All sent by mail for 50 cents a year.
OUR LITTLE MEN AND WOMEN _A glimpse into 1888._
This magazine for youngest readers will be even more entertaining in text and pictures than in the past, and in the stories will be hidden bits of wisdom as well. There will be seventy-five full-page pictures.
=Stories of Captain John Smith and Princess Pocahontas=, twelve of them, will be related by Frances A. Humphrey; they will be accompanied with many historical pictures.
=Laura’s Holidays=, a serial story in twelve chapters, by Henrietta K. Eliot, will relate what one little girl did in a year of holidays. Full-page pictures by Elizabeth S. Tucker.
=Tiny Folks in Armor= is the title of twelve talks about beetles, by Fannie A. Deane. There will be pictures of the beetles.
There will be a set of =Twelve Flower Poems= by Clara Doty Bates, whose bird poems have been so popular the past year.
=Buffy’s Letters to his Mistress=, six in all, will be published by the kind permission of Elizabeth F. Parker. Buffy is a coon-cat, and his doings will be pictured by L. J. Bridgman.
