Vintage children's reader. Delightful stories and more than delightful illustrations. Stories; Penny and Snow Stories (Jack and Penny; Where Was Snow; My Top and I (Speech)); Molly Stories (A Surprise for Nancy; A Bath for Baby; The Song of the Pop-Corn (Speech); A New Face for Molly; Nibble Nose (Speech)); Penny and Molly (Jumping the Rope; Looking for Molly; The Winds (Speech)); The New House (A New House for Penny; The Fire; Penny and His New House; Birthday Candles (Speech); Snowflakes (Speech)); Once Upon a Time (The Big Blue Book; The Three Bears; A Good Story; The Singing Shell (Speech); Grandfather and Grandmother; The Three Billy Goats; A Surprise for Jack). This book would be suitable for taking apart and framing the illustrations by Milo Winter. BUT, it is a historical elementary school education textbook that would look wonderful on display, in a shadow box, or for use in research projects about the change in educational textbooks over the years.
