Product Overview
The information in this beautifully illustrated set of volumes was gathered from many sources and compiled into volumes so that as a child grew, the interest and complexity of what was offered to read, grew with them. The volumes have been reprinted, and updated regularly from 1928 onward. From the first volume, which contains nursery rhymes, fairy tails and fables to the twelfth volume, which covers Shakespeare, Albert Einstein, and Jesse Owens, it has been edited and updated in content from the original. The magic of this set is that it is classic, well written and it urges the reader to explore the original works in more depth.
