About the Book

This book is a wonderful collection of stories and poems from various authors illustrated by Hilda Cowham.

Historical Significance

Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating back to the 1850s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.

Our Mission

Pook Press are working to republish these classic works in affordable, high quality editions, using the original text and artwork so these works can delight another generation of children.
