Subject: Tales of Travel with Beautiful Illustrations
The stories of Mable and Rose and their trip from England to other places. The illustations are beautiful, reminding me a bit of Chris Ware, "Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth," "McSweeney's Issue 13 (McSweeney's Quarterly Concern)" and more.
Strangeness can be noted on page 21 where children are coraled in a strange pen around the teacher and on 22 where in a class room they learn an english alphabet with no "W".
Worth looking at for the depictions of architecture and fashion of the time, circa 1882.
