A First Reader (1906)

The Alsine Readers: A First Reader, by Frank E. Spaulding (HC, 1906, $3, which is 1/3 the current internet price.)

Well loved children's primer.
(Translation of "well loved": smudged, with many small tears, some fixed with  ancient scotch tape, and "how are you today" written on the back page.)
I smile when I read this book's simple rhymes.  Look for this book, and others like it,  in the children's section.
