Fair condition. 12 full-page and 2 double-spread beautiful chromolithograph illustrations featuring children. Numerous text illustrations. Pictorial front board, brown cloth spine. Floral decorated endpapers. Unpaginated. 11 x 8.5". A lovely walk through the twelve sesons in verse.

Sold with all faults, a reading copy only. A very worn copy. Front joint is broken causing front free-endpaper and first gathering of pages to be detached (but still present).
