See More... Gramatky, Hardie LITTLE TOOT
New York G.P. Putnam's Sons (1939) square 8vo. cloth, dust jacket not paginated

Colorful illustrations convey the work of the boats while appealing to the youngest of listeners. Book is a little worn at the spine ends and corners. Dust jacket is quite worn with both the front and back flaps missing and some paper loss from the spine, scuffed. Not the common Weekly Reader edition.
