A Volume of Stories “SUSAN COOLIDGE has always possessed the affection of her young readers, for it seems as if she had the happy instinct of planning stories that each girl would like to act out in reality.”--The Critic “There are not less than sixteen stories written by Susan Coolidge in this pretty volume, and any one of them would be satisfactory reading for not only young people, but for their fathers and mothers. ‘Not Quite Eighteen’ begins with the story of ‘How Bunny Brought Good Luck,’ and Bunny was a wooden doll. Hester lost it in a hole, and what her big brother Roger found in that hole brought good luck to the Gale family. -The New York Times “Short stories by one who knows well how to write for children and included in the little volume “Not Quite Eighteen.’” -The Chautauquan “Promises many pleasant quarter hours to its young readers. The stories may be said to appeal to readers of all ages, because they are homely stories with their morals well concealed.” -The Outlook "Not even Miss Alcott apprehends child nature with finer sympathy, or pictures its nobler traits with more skill." --Boston Daily Advertiser I.
