What Our Customers Say...

Description

Early Edition, Illustrated, Original Binding

Isabella Macdonald Alden (1841 –1930) was an American author, writing under the pseudonym of "Pansy". The success of Helen Lester led to a steady stream of books, numbering in all more than 75. Nearly all of her books were written for children, mainly on religious themes, and all were signed simply “Pansy,” a childhood nickname. Illustrated throughout.
