"The old tales of the plantation have never been told as Mr. Harris has told them. Each narrative is to the point, and so swift in its action upon the risibilities of the reader that one almost loses consciousness of the printed page, and fancies it is the voice of the lovable old darky himself that steals across the senses and brings mirth inextinguishable as it comes; ... and Mr. Frost's drawings are so superlatively good, so inexpressibly funny, that they promise to make this the standard edition of a standard book."--_New York Tribune._
"An exquisite volume, full of good illustrations, and if there is anybody in this country who doesn't know Mr. Harris, here is an opportunity to make his acquaintance and have many a good laugh."--_New York Herald._
"There is but one 'Uncle Remus,' and he will never grow old.... It was a happy thought, that of marrying the work of Harris and Frost."--_New York Mail and Express._
"Nobody could possibly have done this work better than Mr. Frost, whose appreciation of negro life fitted him especially to be the interpreter of 'Uncle Remus,' and whose sense of the humor in animal life makes these drawings really illustrations in the fullest sense. Mr. Harris's well-known work has become in a sense a classic, and this may be accepted as the standard edition."--_Philadelphia Times._
"A book which became a classic almost as soon as it was published.... Mr. Frost has never done anything better in the way of illustration, if indeed he has done anything as good."--_Boston Advertiser._
"We pity the reader who has not yet made the acquaintance of 'Uncle Remus' and his charming story.... Mr. Harris has made a real addition to literature purely and strikingly American, and Mr. Frost has aided in fixing the work indelibly on the consciousness of the American reader."--_The Churchman._
"The old fancies of the old negro, dear as they may have been to us these many years, seem to gain new life when they appear through the medium of Mr. Frost's imagination."--_New York Home Journal._
