Kensington Rhymes

_By_ COMPTON MACKENZIE

_SATURDAY REVIEW:_

     "These are particularly jolly rhymes, that any really good sort of
     a chap, say a fellow of about ten would like. Mr. J. R. Monsell's
     pictures are exceptionally jolly too.... If we may judge by
     ourselves, not only the children, but the grown-ups of the family
     will be enchanted by this quite delightful and really first-rate
     book."

_DAILY MAIL:_

     "Among the picture-books of the season, pride of place must go to
     Mr. Compton Mackenzie's 'Kensington Rhymes.' They are full of quiet
     humour and delicate insight into the child-mind."

_OBSERVER:_

     "Far the best rhymes of the year are 'Kensington Rhymes,' by
     Compton Mackenzie, almost the best things of the kind since the
     'Child's Garden of Verse.'"

_ATHENAEUM:_

     "Will please children of all ages, and also contains much that will
     not be read without a sympathetic smile by grown-ups possessed of a
     sense of humour."

_TIMES:_

     "The real gift of child poetry, sometimes almost with a
     Stevensonian ring."

_OUTLOOK:_
