Notes Mr. Algar ascribed "Felissa and the Lost Child" to Elizabeth Ludlow, but "no confirmation has been found. "Felissa" has also been ascribed to Charles Lamb, but an American collector reports a copy of the 2nd edition" with handwriting inscribed "from the author" on the 1/2 title that is definitely not in Lamb's writing. - Moon, Harris books for youth page 50 (entry 257 (1)).
