32mo. 64pp. Printed stereotype is this moral fable from the publisher's series, "Uncle Toby's Library." The story, for all its expected didacticism, does surprise with a divergent mention of "Aztec children," likely a result of the contemporary fascination with indigenous cultures of the Americas. Bound in blind-embossed red cloth over boards with gilt decoration to spine. Light rubs to corners, else fine. Former owner's inscription to front flyleaf.
