Book excerpt: "By thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned." -Matt. 12:37.As they drew near the house Max came to meet them."I've been to the post-office since the mail came in, papa," he said, "and there is no governmentletter for you yet. I'm so glad! I hope they're going to let us keep you a good deal longer.""I'm not sorry to prolong my stay with wife and children," the captain responded, "but cannot hopeto be permitted to do so very much longer.""Grandpa Dinsmore has come back from taking Harold and Herbert to college," pursued Max, "andwe're all to take tea in there, Mamma Vi says; because grandpa wants us all about him this firstevening.""That is kind," said the captain, opening the gate and looking smilingly at Violet, who, with littleGrace, was waiting for him on the veranda. He stopped there to speak with them, while Lulu hurriedon into the house and up to her own room, Max following."Where's my book, Lu?" he asked."O Max, I couldn't help it-but papa caught me reading it and took it away from me. And he toldme when you asked me for it I should send you to him."Max's face expressed both vexation and alarm. "I sha'n't do that," he said, "if I never get it. But washe very angry, Lu?""No; and you needn't be afraid to go to him, for he won't punish you; I asked him not to, and hesaid he wouldn't. But he threw the book into the sea, and said neither you nor I should ever readsuch poisonous stuff with his knowledge or consent.""Then, where would be the use of my going to him for it? I'll not say a word about it."He went out, closed the door and stood irresolutely in the hall, debating with himself whether to goup-stairs or down. Up-stairs in his room was another dime novel which he had been reading thatafternoon; he had not quite finished it, and was eager to do so; he wanted very much to know howthe story ended, and had meant to read the few remaining pages now before the call to tea. But hisfather's words, reported to him by Lulu, made it disobedience.

Book excerpt: "For wild, or calm, or far or near, I love thee still, thou glorious sea." -Mrs. Hemans. "I bless thee for kind looks and words Shower'd on my path like dew, For all the love in those deep eyes, A gladness ever new." -Mrs. Hemans. It is late in the afternoon of a delicious October day; the woods back of the two cottages where the Dinsmores, Travillas and Raymonds have spent the last three or four months are gorgeous with scarlet, crimson and gold; the air from the sea is more delightful than ever, but the summer visitors to the neighboring cottages and hotels have fled, and the beach is almost deserted, as Edward and his child-wife wander slowly along it, hand in hand, their attention divided between the splendors of a magnificent sunset and the changing beauty of the sea; yonder away in the distance it is pale gray; near at hand delicate green slowly changing to pink, each wave crested with snowy foam, and anon they all turn to burnished gold. "Oh, how very beautiful!" cries Zoe, in an ecstasy of delight. "Edward, did you ever see anything finer?" "Never! Let us go down this flight of steps and seat ourselves on the next to the lowest. We will then be quite near the waves and yet out of danger of being wet by them." He led her down as he spoke, seated her comfortably and himself by her side with his arm around her.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Elsie Dinsmore Novels, Martha Finley, in our opinion is the author of the best Series of novels that we have seen in our forty-three years of reviewing. Written by Martha Finley, an unmarried teacher of the last century, these novels proved to be a means of conveying her deep love for Christ Jesus. She loved her Lord, she loved His Word, and this love was passed on to His sheep through the writing of by far the best and most Biblical novels you will ever read or see. Altogether there are 28 of these novels, all built around Elsie Dinsmore, her immediate family, her extended family, and her neighbors.

Book excerpt: Elsie is a city girl. She loves the noise of the cobbled streets of Boston. But when her mother dies and her father moves them to the faraway prairies of Nebraska, Elsie hears only the silence, and she feels alone in the wide sea of grass. Her only comfort is her canary, Timmy Tune. But when Timmy flies out the window, Elsie is forced to run after him, into the tall grass of the prairie, where she's finally able to hear the voice of the prairie-beautiful and noisy- and she begins to feel at home. Jane Yolen and David Small create a remarkable, poetic, vividly rendered book about finding one's place in the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martha Finley (April 26, 1828 - January 30, 1909) was a teacher and author of numerous works, the most well known being the 28 volume Elsie Dinsmore series which was published over a span of 38 years. The daughter of Presbyterian minister Dr. James Brown Finley and his wife and cousin Maria Theresa Brown Finley, she was born on April 26, 1828, in Chillicothe, Ohio. Finley wrote many of her books under the pseudonym Martha Farquharson. She died in 1909 in Elkton, Maryland, where she moved in 1876. Elsie Dinsmore is a children's book series written by Martha Finley (1828-1909) between 1867 and 1905. An adapted version has been published, but it leaves out several of the most important facts and details.Later in Elsie's life, the books focus less on Elsie herself, and mostly deal with Lulu's constant conflict with her fearful temper. When Violet is first married to Lulu's father Captain Raymond, Lulu creates a problem by refusing to obey her new mother. Another time, she hurts and nearly kills her baby sister, causing her father to beat her with a riding whip. When Lulu attends school in Louisiana, her music instructor taps her with a ruler, causing her to strike him over the head with a book. When Lulu refuses to comply with Mr. Dinsmore's order that she go back to the signor, Lulu holds out, causing her to be cut off from the family circle. Her bad behavior causes Rosie to sympathize with her sister Vi for having such burdens, and Rosie often teases Lulu into a passion.When Elsie comes of age she marries her father's good friend Edward Travilla. He has been her knight in shining armor who constantly helps her when other people are cruel to her; he has loved her for a long time. They have 8 children: Elsie, Edward, Violet, Harold, Herbert, Lily (who dies at age seven), Rosie, and Walter. Elsie Dinsmore's eldest daughter Elsie becomes engaged to her neighbor's nephew, Lester Leland. Edward Jr. goes to Europe with young Elsie when Lester Leland falls ill. While in Europe, Edward Jr. meets the woman who will become his wife, Zoe Love. He marries her just before her father dies. They later have twins: Edward Lawrence (Laurie) and Lily. While they are away, Violet meets and falls in love with Captain Levis Raymond. He has three children by his first wife: Max, Lucilla (called Lulu), and Gracie; the rest of the books are mainly about them. Together, Captain Raymond and Violet have two children: Elsie and Edward (Ned). Rosie marries a college friend of her brother's whom she met on vacation, William Croly. Lulu Raymond marries Chester Dinsmore, and they have one child together before the series ends. Max marries his step uncle's orphaned niece Evelyn Leland.
