About this Item

Children's chapbook. 24pp, outer pages glued to original printed wrappers, as issued. Original string binding, though splitting at spine. Showing noticeable wear to covers; some chipping (or mis-cutting) at edges of covers and pages, Old inscription at top of front wrap. Apparently quite a scarce item: WolrdCat appears to show only 2 copies, at AAS and Yale. The WorldCat entry does not provide any name for the American Lady who is designated as the author. Regardless, a nice item of an American woman author's book for children. Seller Inventory # 001055
