I didn’t know that there are a series of books out there, in circulation, that are written in syllables in order to facilitate reading at a young age.  I came across one of these this afternoon in a second hand store.  I paid a dollar for it.  A treasure, this is a first edition, written by Lewis Carroll and published in 1908.  The ads in the back are for Akron, Ohio.  This beautiful book once belonged to Goldie McConnell.  A great find!
