"OH! CHRISTINA! is quite as amusing as 'Wee Macgreegor,' but with a quaint, bristling, slangy, good-hearted little girl as the exponent of Glasga' humor instead of a laddie. The book may be read in an hour, and that hour at least will be one of jollity"—The Outlook.

"We all remember Mr. Bell as the author of 'Wee Macgreegor,' but good as it is, this new story is his best work thus far. In it he strikes a new vein, perfectly irresistible to any one who loves a straightforward, honest tale, full of living, breathing characters whom one seems to have met and known."—"Boston Times.
