Notes

1st ed. LCCN and OCLC: "New York & London, G.P. Putnam's Sons, 1924" Catalog record at HathiTrust Digital Library, with word/phrase counts by page (eg 113 for Christmas, 0 Hallowe'en or Halloween); "Snippets may be available for some items if you log in."

Published for the Christmas season 1924. Van Everen completed the illustrations for 1923 but the writer missed that year's deadline. Anne Carroll Moore's column "The New Children's Books", The Bookman 1924-10 p60, includes other remarks on the process, and remarks on children's book illustration --but no review of course (and no price).
