Aunt Louisa's Little Treasures
Eliza Lee Cabot Follen
Hardcover
(McLaughlin Brothers, March 15, 1874)
This is a rare children's book of delightful poetry and illustrations from 1874 called Aunt Louisa's Little Treasures, comprised of 4 parts, including the iconic Three Little Kittens (that lost their mittens) by Eliza Lee Cabot Follen (1787-1860) and in fact some of the illustrations from this book are used in the Wikipedia article about this poem. All in all the book is in great condition for its age and measures 9.5" x 11". There are 24 pages of color illustrations that are all excellent. The pages are printed on only one side. There is a handwritten date and dedication in pencil on the first blank pages of the book. I have photographed every page so please feel free to email me for additional pictures or questions.
