A little family tragedy with a happy ending. A new child player has a prominent part in it and the pretty, naturalness of her work adds much to the picture's charm. The first subtitle thrown on the screen tells us that the child's parents are disagreeing over trifles. This title is more trite than the picture of the fact, and its absence would have been an improvement. The mother, in a few very competently acted scenes, gets ready to go home; her trunk is packed, and the expressman called. Meanwhile the little girl, left to her own devices, has determined to go to school, and with an armful from the library bookcase has started out. The mother, now looking for her, finds her gone. She and the expressman follow her, guided by the books that she drops one by one. The father has come home and found the house empty. When the child is brought back to the house, the man and woman make up. It is very well acted and commendable film. - The Moving Picture World, November 25, 1911
