A little boy, who is a somnambulist, one night walks out of the sleeping car of a train that pulls up for a temporary stoppage on the line as it passes through a great forest. On awaking, he imagines that he is in fairyland, and that the sights and sounds around him are those of the "Magic Forest" of which he had read such interesting tales. Presently he meets with some Red Indians, who treat him kindly and take him with them on their long tramp by wood and river, and by them he is taught the Nature-wonders of bird and beast and fish—all of which are simply told and charmingly illustrated in this delightful book. —Child Life, Volume 5 "The Magic Forest", by Stewart Edward White, has some of the woodland effect of Ernest Seton Thompson's work, and no higher praise can be given. This is an excellent gift-book for small boys. —The Saturday Review of Politics, Literature, Science and Art, Volume 96
