[Gutenberg 43659] • The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe; Or, There's No Place Like Home

This is not a child’s story, nor a comic view of household life,—as some might think from its title—but a domestic novel, full of the delights of home, of pure thoughts, and gentle virtues. It has also sufficient complications to keep the thread of interest drawn, and to lead the reader on. Among Miss Douglas’ many successful books, there is none more beautiful or attractive, or which leaves a more permanent impression.
