Noon-day fancies for our little pets
Noon-Day Fancies for Our Little Pets is a children's story and verse collection published in New York by Cassell Publishing Co. in 1889, aimed at young readers. Its pictures are wood-engraved scenes of children outdoors, with a boy by a tree and a dog in a garden, drawn in a plain, small-scale style that a designer could borrow for rural, nostalgic vignettes with generous negative space and simple figure groupings.
