"A Child's Book of Saints" was first published in 1898, when Mr. Canton had already found his audience. The book is a near successor indeed to his "W. V.: Her Book," and to "The Invisible Playmate"; and W. V. again acts as guardian elf and guide to this new region of the child's earthly paradise. The Saints are here treated with a simplicity that is almost or altogether child like, and with an unforced imagination which is only to be learnt by becoming as a child. And this is perhaps why, although comparatively a new book, it has the air of something pleasantly old, and written long ago; and thus wins its way into the children's library of old favourite authors.

Some of Mr. Canton's other publish works includes A Lost Epic, and other Poems, The Invisible Playmate: a Story of the Unseen, W. V., Her Book and Various Verses, A Child's Book of Saints, Children's Sayings, Edited, with a Digression on the Small People.
