Little Fables for Little Folks

Abstract

This is an eighteen-page large format toy book printed by Kronheim & Company in London. Actually, six of the pages are chromolithograph inserts printed on only one side. Even the text-pages are printed on only one side. The verse fables here include LM, The Birds in Council, DM, DLS, The Wolf and the Kid, and The Bear and the Bees. The lion's facial expression in the very first illustration is worth careful study as he looks out through his ropes at the observer. Uncle Fred interacts with children listeners throughout the pamphlet.
