The Happy Prince, and other Tales ('The Nightingale and the Rose'; the 'Remarkable Rocket'; the 'Selfish Giant'; the 'Devoted Friend') the latest work of Oscar Wild [sic], the celebrated (but now reformed) English aesthete, comes out in a pretty volume, illustrated by Walter Crane and Jacomb Hood, in their peculiar and interesting manner. The stories are in every way charming, and will win and enchain the interest of all readers, and especially of young people. (Roberts Bros.)
