Minneapolis: Bertha L. Corbett, 1900. True first edition of the scarce children's book. Self published. Precedes the first commercial edition by two years. Hand coloured title page. Two pages have small closed tears. Otherwise clean and tidy inside and out. Charming drawings and simple poetry. Probably has renewed spine. Slight rusting to title page only. Overall a lovely copy. 190 x 190 mm (7½ x 7½ inches).
