This is one of the most treasured children's books and much sought after from the early 20th century. Poetry by Walter De La mar and wonderful illustrations on almost every page are by Harold Jones. To quote the poet, " Dear Reader, prythee, stay and look at this delightful picture book! Others like it you may have seen, for eye and mind to linger in, But surely none, for tints and tones, Lovelier than this, by Harold Jones? is there a colour---earth sky sea, which from his box can missing be?Even a rainbow might whisper, Hush! In envy of his paints and brush. Book is very good with a frayed but solid spine. Internally this treasure is in unmarked, pristine condition. Very collectible.
