In these original versions of well loved classics, a reader can get a glimpse into the time era whence it was written by the language espoused by the pages.
Such a beautiful read (381 pages).
A must read to all children, and adults who need that reminder that once life was..more creative than we allow ourselves to be sometimes in our wrinkly state. ( )
