Description: The Three Little Frogs by John L. Mee. Illustrated by John Rae. Published by P.F. Volland Company as part of the Volland "Sunny Book" Series. 1924 - First Edition! Measures 6 in. X 7.5 in., pages unnumbered, but the story is approximately 32 pages long. This is a very charming vintage children's book by John L. Mee. It is beautifully illustrated by John Rae (1882-1963) who authored and illustrated a number of children's books, including the better known: The New Adventures of Alice, Grasshopper Green and the Meadow Mice, and Granny Goose. He contributed illustration material to over 50 books, as well as magazines of the day. This rare Volland title is in very good condition. It has no dustcover but is a first edition, which is quite hard to find. This one is in exceptional condition. This book features illustrated endpapers, 7 full-page color illustrations, and in-text illustrations on every page! It would be a lovely addition to any collection. Any book illustrated by John Rae is always beautiful, and the quality of the colors and degree of detail are remarkable. This book contains many scenes from the foreign lands that the little frogs visit in their travels, and even the back page advertising other Volland titles has a charming illustration of a frog playing a banjo. Quite sweet! Please reach out for any additional information!
