Reviews
This is a really witty and funny book, and I enjoyed it very much. It's more of a booklet, really, and easily read within a few hours. :)
Book from a matched binding set (7) removed from library collection. Set was bound in green cloth, pub 1902, illustrated, matching - only decoration on book spine. Very fragile condition.
Nice Christmas stories for young children & some poems. Arthur Beecher's illustrations were excellent.
