Grown-up readers will like it quite as much as young people, and will even better understand the rarity of such simple, natural, and unaffected writing.... That no one can read the story without interest is not its highest praise, for no one ought to be able to lay it down without being the better girl or boy, or man or woman, for the reading of it. Lady Barker has never turned her fertile and fascinating pen to better account, and for the sake of all readers we wish 'Sybil's Book' a wide success."_--TIMES.

The real charm and purpose of the book is its open-air life among hills and dales._"--TIMES.

The SATURDAY REVIEW says:--"_A novel which is both romantic and natural, which has much feeling, without any touch of mawkishness, which goes deep into character without any suggestion of painful analysis--this is a rare gem to find amongst the débris of current literature, and this, or nearly this, Mr. Black has given us in the 'Princess of Thule.'_" "_It has, for one thing, the great charm of novelty....
