More Little Colonel Books, Etc.

While many of these are derivatives of the original Little Colonel Books, there will be some new reading here as well, especially on the Little Colonel Stories, Part II.  "Prequels" you may call them.

We're resting here at LittleColonel.com, having just completed Mary Ware's Promised Land but soon we'll begin treating each of these below.  Many at least have new illustrations! We hope this "list of coming attractions" will do for now.

 

The Little Colonel Stories, 1899: A compilation of:
     The Little Colonel
     The Giant Scissors
     Two Little Knights of Kentucky

The Little Colonel Stories, Second Series (1931) A compilation of:
