- Abstract
- en_US From the Edmonton Public Library. It is fitting that I finally bought this lovely book, which I had seen often, in Toronto itself. Among its many treasures are five nice verse fables on 162-5 with seven black-and-white illustrations. Page 228 nicely identifies the source as Old Friends in a New Dress by Richard Scrafton Sharpe (London: Harvey and Darton, and William Darton, 1820). The verse is unusually clear, and the illustrations good. As you go through the book, enjoy the illustrations for Dame Trudge and Her Parrot on 77-8. Also delightful are individual images of a visiting physician attacked by animals on 194 and of a boy shooting his sister on 211.
