Black and white head pieces and tail pieces. Title page printed in red and black. Fine condition.. Illustrated by Frank C. Papé with eight color plates and twelve black and white plates.. These tales are meant to be submitted to the young reader as an introduction to the study of Shakspeare, for which purpose his words are used whenever it seemed possible to bring them in; and in whatever has been added to give them the regular form of a connected story, diligent care has been taken to select such words as might least interrupt the effect of the beautiful English tongue in which he wrote; therefore, words introduced into our language since his time have been as far as possible avoided.

Every bit as funny, wicked, and lovable as her bestselling memoirs." Valerie Frankel. "Fans of John Hughes will be delighted by the eighties film references, but the book also stands alone as a timeless soon-to-be classic." Caprice Crane Known for her hilariously witty New York Times bestselling memoirs, Jen Lancaster has now written a histerical debut novel about a couple, their suburban dream - and a DIY nightmare. Mia has no doubt that she and her husband, Mac, can win a war of spray-painted words with the young thug who keeps tagging their property. After all, they're gainfully employed, college-educated Chicagoans. Mia even makes a living churning out popular teen Amish-zombie romances. But the charm of living in the city has definitely worn off, driving them to pack it all in, round up their pets,…

A few finger smudges, small white spot on spine Old Sunday School library stamp on ffep. A touch of rubbing to extremities. Overall a very good copy.. Frontispiece illustration of Allfather in Hildskjalf. The Great-Grandmother is the old lady of history, of poetry, of romance, and religion, whose only business is to remember. In the ancient Norse tongue she is called Edda, and you will learn that there is an elder and a younger Edda; but the younger is the direct descendant of the elder, and derives all her knowledge and importance from her. Therefore, we might aptly call them Great-Grandmother and Grandmother Edda. The two Eddas, as you may know, are two Icelandic books containing the oldest account of Norse mythology and legend; and I shall explain to you how it happens that nearly all we know of ancient…

Book is in fine condition./Price clipped dust jacket has a 3/4" tear at top of back panel.. Illustrated with black and white and color illustrations throughout by Patricia Scheirer. Teddy Bear was the cutest, fattest, roly-poliest little bear you ever saw. He was a frisky little bear who didn't want to go to sleep for the winter when the rest of his family did. He thought of blueberries. He thought of honey. He thought of running and playing in the sun. He couldn't do that when he was asleep in bed.
