Two new books for young readers

Just in time for Christmas, Monroe St. Press has added two classic Victorian children's books by well-known authors to its catalog: 

The Light Princess by George MacDonald, a tale of a princess with an unusual curse and the young man who strives to help her break it. Includes the original line drawing illustrations by Arthur Hughes. $5.00 at Amazon.com. 

The Happy Prince and Other Tales by Oscar Wilde, a collection of five short stories of friendship, sacrifice, selfishness, betrayal and pride. Includes "The Happy Prince", "The Nightingale and the Rose", "The Selfish Giant", "The Devoted Friend", and "The Remarkable Rocket". Also includes original illustrations by Walter Crane and Jacomb Hood. $5.00 at Amazon.com.

We plan to add more titles for young readers to our collection in 2017. If you have any suggested titles or authors you would like to see Monroe St. Press offer, contact us by leaving a comment at this blog or by e-mail at emsjas@hotmail.com.
