1850. _The Child's Own Book_. Published in London. There was
an earlier edition, not before 1830. The introduction, which
in the 1850 edition was copied from the original, indicates
by its style that the book was written early in the
nineteenth century. The book was the delight of generations
of children. It was a collection containing tales from
_Arabian Nights_, Perrault's tales of _Cinderella,
Puss-in-Boots, Hop-o'-my-Thumb, Bluebeard_, etc., D'Aulnoy's
_Valentine and Orson_, chap-book stories of _Dick
Whittinqton, Fortunatus, Griselda, Robinson Crusoe, The
