Rummaging thru my old children's books the other day I found this old Love of mine. This book was given to me when I was 6 years old. I have always been enchanted by this book! I remember when I first got it, I wanted so badly to read all the words, but it was hard when my knowledge extended to only reading e.g="the-at-on-it-to-with-go"...words. So the pictures would keep me busy. And OH how they are BEAUTIFUL! I just Have to share this gorgeous book with you all! The illustrations are taken from old vintage paintings and sketches. LOVE it!
