About This Item
Ex-library book, with Discarded marking on the interior. The "First Book" series was inaugurated in 1944 by Franklin Watts. It began with the "First Book of Airplanes", and went on to produce 100 books in the series. It was designed with the purpose of introducing children to new subjects, written in such a way as to be interesting on their level. Leonard Everett Fisher, prolific illustrator of around 250 children's books, did the illustrations; he is known for his pen and ink drawings that are highly detailed. The interior is not marked, although the outside has library marks and a call number on the spine.

About The Periscope Collection
The Periscope Collection is an online store physically located in Nashville, TN. The Collection has grown out of my love of all things book-related, and after 30+ years of home schooling. We specialize in old and rare children's books, especially authors such as Tasha Tudor, Robert Lawson, and Marguerite de Angeli. We also focus on early American history, with a particular interest in the Landmark Biographies, the "Book House" series and "The Book of Life." One of our greatest passions is children's historical fiction, from authors like Wilma Pitchford Hays and William O. Steele (a native Tennessean!) and Lois Lenski, from my home state of Connecticut. And for those of you who have a heart for homeschooling, we have collected many books that Charlotte Mason would have called "Living Books": books that reflect the personality of the writer and, unlike a textbook, are not full of what she referred to as "twaddle". Along with Living Books, we also have a selection of Homeschooling helps, from some of homeschooling's wisest veterans. Come browse our Collection and see what you can discover!
