Freebie Friday I Saw Three Ships Free Image

Last summer my family and I visited our favorite used bookstore in Corvallis Oregon.  It is a funky old place full of stacks of books.  But those sellers are sooo savy.  Anyway...tucked way back in a room...(because it is like a labyrinth) I found this old book on top of a stack.  My heart raced as I looked through it.  What beautiful illustrations... What a beautiful children's book.  The title is A Baby's Opera  The Book of Old Rhymes With New Dresses By Walter Crane.
I hope you enjoy these pages as much as I do...I am in the process of scanning them and cleaning them up (a new trick I have learned).  I thought these would make such beautiful angels for the holidays.
