Alphabet House

New Series Toy Books.

The Religious Tract Society.

Small quarto. 6pp., + 6 colored plates interleaved. This instructional volume parses the alphabet into six sets of four, with each head quartet accompanied by a short tale employing the four letters. Each text page also bears a border of four Biblical verses, so that the child simultaneously learns academic and moral lessons. Bound in pink printed wrappers, which advertise the edition as part of the New Series of Toy Books. Minor foxing to pages, some soiling to exterior, including single small tear to upper cover, else very good.
