These titles were published in a number of years. It appears the
first issues were in 1856. They were only sold as a boxed set. A book
that contained all the titles was published in 1858.
These books only have words of a single syllable. Sixteen colored
pictures each book.
Little Harry's Book of Poetry was issued at about the same time but was
sold by itself at a slightly higher cost. It was not part of this
series.
Cloth. Maroon. Blindstamped with embossed pattern. Gilt on spine.
