The book is a mixture of fantasy, humor, and social commentary, touching on themes such as the nature of childhood, the relationship between adults and children, and the role of imagination in our lives. The Little White Bird is considered a classic of children's literature and has been adapted into several stage plays and films.Has it ever been your lot, reader, to be persecuted by a pretty woman who thinks, without a tittle of reason, that you are bowed down under a hopeless partiality for her?

When we pass in the street the poor deluded soul subdues her buoyancy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
