The "Moral Library" included the Marco Paul’s books in 1843-1844.
In August of 1844 an ad noted that Carter’s "Moral Library" had eight
titles.
Three books were listed:
Well-Bred Boy
Well Bred Girl
Arthur's Story Book
(The others may have been the Marco Paul's' books.)
William J. Reynolds & Co. published its "Moral Library" in 1847. It is likely that all of the Reynolds' books were also part of an earlier Carter "Moral Library".
