A Book for Children

Fortunately, I own a prized collection of a few old books.
Invaluable treasure, indeed.

I just happened to glance through one of those old books.
A book for children.
"Nelson's Indian Readers", printed in Great Britain (1927).

As the 'Prefatory Note' reads: "This little book is intended for use in the East in the first class above the Primary Department."

What impressed me was the pictorial form of the book.

A book meant for young children.
Full of pictures. A number of black-and-white pictures.
A number of coloured plates, too.

How happy the child would be to study a 'foreign language' from such a nice book!
