A mid-nineteenth-century gift book of brief stories, fables and poems for young readers. Two cousins learn to share, harsh words are set beside kind ones, a heron fable teaches a lesson, children talk of a sister gone to heaven, and pieces on temptation, truthfulness, spring flowers and evening prayer round out the collection.
A charming relic of the American gift-book era, for collectors of early children’s literature. Download the free EPUB.
