    Fifty Famous Stories Retold 

    Baldwin, James (American Book Company, 1896)
    At last I find the source from which Baldwin's Androclus and the Lion (87) is so often taken. Also included: Socrates and his House (112). For the former, C.E. Hubbell does a standard illustration. The book is ...

    The Universal Anthology, Vols 1 

    Brandl, Alois; Garnett, Richard; Vallée, Léon (The Anthological Society of London, 1899)
    Compare this with the larger edition, of which I have two volumes done in 1899. By contrast, this edition has smaller pages and margins but uses the same size plates; it also lacks a limited-edition number and illustrations ...

    Pleasant Stories for My Children 

    No Author (Blakeman & Mason, 1890)
    LM opens a collection of eight stories in an undersized book. The closing story is labelled out of nowhere Story XXIV! The lion puts his paw by accident onto the mouse, who makes only a squeak and no plea. The lion is ...

    No Author (The Cassell Publishing Co., 1895)
    This stout book has four major sections, devoted to Robinson Crusoe, Swiss Family Robinson, Gulliver's Travels, and Aesop's Fables. Each segment takes between 87 and 96 pages, and each of the four is numbered separately. ...

    Fifty Famous Stories Retold 

    Baldwin, James (American Book Company, 1896)
    Here is a first edition of the book I found a year ago in the 1924 edition. It is in better condition, has a more traditional cover, and offers delightful advertisements at the end. This book cost $.02 more when it was ...

    French, Charles Wallace; LaVictoire, Florence E; Lane, Abby E; Perdue, H. Avis; Sprague, Sarah E (Rand McNally & Company,, 1898)
    This is a standard turn-of-the-century early reader that starts with very simple readings and works up through some fairy tales to more complex stories. FC appears with two nicely separated simple illustrations on 94-6. ...

    Tiny Toddlers 

    Arthur, T. S (Donohue Henneberry & Co,, 1899)
    Here is a wonderful find. It is one of those turn-of-the-century readers with simple stories of all sorts, dark pictures, and bright-eyed children on the cover. I noticed as I was about to put the book back that there ...

    Stories from Aulus Gellius 

    Gellius, Aulus; Knapp, Charles (American Book Company, 1895)
    I am aware of one Aesopic fable in this fragile, broken booklet, whose cover and first few pages are loose. Aulus tells the story-- Mother Lark and Her Young (34-7)--extremely well. Who knows how long I may have had ...

    Child Life in Tale and Fable: A Second Reader 

    Blaisdell, Etta Austin; Blaisdell, Mary Frances (The Macmillan Company, 1899)
    This is a well-used old book with many torn pages, but still intact. There are several colored full-page inserts, but none for fables. Five fables appear, all copiously and engagingly illustrated in black-and-white. In ...
