Helen's Babies

By John Habberton

Interesting!

Entertaining!

Amusing!

A Book with a famous reputation. It is safe to say that no book, ill.u.s.trating the doings of children, has ever been published that has reached the popularity enjoyed by "HELEN'S BABIES." Brilliantly written, Habberton records in this volume some of the cutest, wittiest and most amusing of childish sayings, whims and pranks, all at the expense of a bachelor uncle. The book is elaborately ill.u.s.trated, which greatly a.s.sists the reader in appreciating page by page, Habberton's masterpiece.

We guarantee that you will not suffer from "the blues" after reading this book.
