Item description from seller

First edition likely second printing with later date of 1936 after 1930 and on the copyright page. Publisher's black cloth-backed printed wrappers printed in black, green & orange. A very good example showing moderate use. In this 1936 printing, SALLY was stilled called BABY [unnamed to this point] & SPOT the dog was still a TERRIER. In later editions he became a COCKER SPANIEL. PUFF the cat was still called, LITTLE MEW, as of this first printing [she was PUFF in later editions]. The very first of the famous Elson-Gray Basic Readers, introducing Dick, Jane, & Baby followed by nine short stories, using a 68-word vocabulary - the birth of the original Dick & Jane series. 40 pages with each having a color illustration, the last (p40) is a collage of all of the characters, also in colors. Minor to moderate wear.
