Description: Up for bid are three old children’s books. Good for their age, but read each description to find any faults. First is a 1935 hardcover book, Little Tom of England, a sweet story by Madeline Brandeis "Crossing to England on a ship, Bob meets the ship's youngest page, Tom, who is working his way home after his father died in America. Before the boys part, Bob slips some money into Tom's pants pocket, but accidentally includes a locket that belongs to Bob's mother. " 159 pages; with some photo illustrations. Pictorial end papers. Book is in good overall condition with some normal cover wear and stubbed corners (please check photos as they are part of the description). Clean and unmarked inside. Almost 90 years old! Next is a Robert Bulla book "John Billington - Friend of Squanto". Book is in good condition with some normal wear to covers corners. Very clean inside, with no marks to pages. A Weekly Reader Children's Book Club book. About 6.5" x 8". Copyright 1956. 88 pages. "Bulla is an outstanding writer who paints vivid story images in the minds of his readers while teaching them interesting facts. This is a fascinating novel for children about the Pilgrims' interactions with the Indians in America from a child's perspective. It is very accurate historically, (unlike Disney's abomination of Squanto the movie). They will not be bored!" Finally there is The Rooster Crows: A Book of American Rhymes and Jingles by Maud & Miska Petersham, copyright 1945. Sweet illustrations pair with well-known nursery rhymes, counting games, skipping-rope songs, finger games, and other classics loved by generations of American children. Hardcover. Cover shows a bit of storage wear, and a check mark on the front inside end paper, but pages are beautiful! I believe it’s in very good shape for the age! All are smoke and odor free! Shipping is Media in the USA; cost adjusted for shipping outside the US. Thanks for looking! Please visit my other auctions!
