Antique Victorian children’s book Little Alice’s Palace; or, The Sunny Heart, published by T. Nelson and Sons in 1872.
The book is anonymous and is a moral/religious children’s tale centred on optimism, kindness, faith and finding joy despite hardship. Project Gutenberg specifically identifies the text as transcribed from the 1872 T. Nelson and Sons edition, matching your title page exactly.
This is a lovely decorative survivor, with green embossed cloth boards, a colourful pictorial panel to the front and a colour frontispiece. The title page is clearly dated 1872.
Condition: Good/fair antique condition for age. Boards show rubbing, fading and edge/corner wear, with some wear to the spine ends. Front pictorial panel remains bright and attractive. Internally there is age toning and scattered foxing/marks, but pages appear generally intact and readable. Binding appears sound overall. Please see photographs for condition.
