Illustrated, Publishers' Original Binding
A green, hardback with gilt, embossed lettering to spine and colour frontispiece. This is a short story with twelve chapters. Susan Bogert Warner (July 11, 1819 – March 17, 1885), was an American writer of religious fiction for young people. Some of her works were written jointly with her sister Anna Bartlett Warner, who also sometimes wrote under a pseudonym, "Amy Lothrop". Both Susan and Anna Warner wrote famous children's Christian songs. Susan wrote Jesus Bids us Shine while Anna was author of the first verse of the well-known children's song Jesus Loves Me, This I Know, which she wrote at Susan's request.
