"A cheap edition of a book, which within the short space of a year has reached the almost unprecedented sale of 200,000 copies in France, and which has been there awarded the valuable academical prize of M. Monthyon cannot fail to meet with appreciation in this country. "The story, interesting to most people, is peculiarly adapted for young persons; for while it does not fail to interest by its incidents and its characters, it has the advantage of being written with a purity which will enable it to be placed in the hands of young people of both sexes."-Preface. "It is a wise venture to bring out this very able translation at this season of the year, as it will form a Christmas present for many and many a schoolboy who will revel in the adventures of little Remi and his boy-companion Mattia, How such a book would have charmed us in our youth! how many half-hours we should have stolen to pore over the pages in which M. Malot has so glowingly depicted the dinnerless and supperless days of Remi and his master Vitalis, the owner of the performing dogs and monkey, once the famous singer Carlo Balzani, who, through loss of his voice, was obliged to retire from the gaze of the enraptured public! How we should have exulted in Remi's strokes of good luck; how we should have wept with him when he wept! All this is left for many a happy boy to do who little knows what a treat is in store for him when he first opens the gorgeous cover of 'No Relations,' which, besides the tempting letterpress, contains endless illustrations of average merit. In its present form it is likely to reach as many editions in England as it did in its birthplace, France."-The Whitehall Review.
