Notes Pages 6-81 are leaves. AAS Notes: "This little publication was made for a particular child, but the publick is welcome to the use of it. It was found, that, amidst the multitude of books professedly written for children, there is not one adapted to the comprehension of a child from two to three years old. A grave remark, or a connected story ... is below his capacity; and nonsense is always below it ... Another great defect is the want of good paper, a clear and large type, and large spaces. ... To supply these deficiencies is the object of this book."--Advertisement, p. 3-4.
