Aesop's fables for little readers

Aesop's fables for little readers. Pictured by Henry J. Ford. ''I have found ... that even the simplest editons [of Aesop's fables] which are published are too difficult for my own little children to understand; and I have therefore tried to produce the charming and familiar stories in a form which may be welcomed in the nursery, and approved by Little Readers to whom easy and child-like language is an object.''--Introduction signed by Olive Brookfield from Leasam, Rye, Sussex, p. 9. Half t.p. inscribed: Vera Hollit, from Uncle Albert, 28 Sep. 1888. Undated. Date supplied by BLC.
