(4,75 Sterne; 2 Bewertungen)

Full of delightful fairy tales, charming poems and engaging stories, this is the fifth volume of the "My Bookhouse" series for little ones. Originally published in the 1920's as a six volume set, these books, edited by Olive Beaupre Miller, contained the best in children's literature, stories, poems and nursery rhymes. They progressed in difficulty through the different volumes. (Summary by Maria Therese)

Note: Due to a numbering error, the audio introductions do not say "Section 6" but jump from 5 to 7. There is no text missing. (15 hr 21 min)
