This series was introduced by Henry A. Sumner & Company in 1880.
It appears that the book plates were from previously published books
by Graves and Young. Thus the ad for Aunt Hattie's Library and Her
Little Friends found in these volumes (which includes Chest of Tools
instead of Little Miss Fret) does not apply to this Sumner Library but
rather the earlier Graves and Young publications.
This series was published earlier by Henry A. Young & Co. and even
earlier by the aforementioned Graves & Young.
Aunt Hattie's Library for Boys and Girls is a boxed set that combines
all twelve books from this series and the Aunt Hattie’s Library for
Boys.
Illustrated.
Cloth. Various colors. Several different front cover appliqués have
been seen which are not book specific. Gilt lettering and
decoration on the spine. 6" x 4".
