The Brownies: Their Book

Palmer Cox

Palmer Cox's mischievous little men never sleep: by night his Brownies ride, skate, toboggan, play lawn tennis, storm the gymnasium, and throw themselves a feast. Every romp comes in bouncing verse with Cox's swarming pen-and-ink crowds, where each tiny face has its own personality. The picture book that sent a whole generation hunting for Brownies in the margins. Start hunting. Please note: this is the text of the story only. It has no pictures, so it is meant for a grown-up to read aloud rather than for a child to read alone. The illustrated experience of this story is the audiobook edition on Littletone.
