Abstract
THE greater part of this booklet is in the form of the autobiography of an ailing song-sparrow, which could not fly, and was kept in a house for three months. The story, which purports to represent the bird's thoughts and feelings, will probably appeal to little girls, and encourage then to be kind to animals.
The Story of Scraggles (A Sparrow).
By George W. James. Illustrated from drawings by Sears Gallagher and from photographs. Pp. 88. (London: Chatto and Windus, 1907.) Price 2s. 6d.
