PETER PARLEY'S TALES ABOUT THE SUN,
MOON, AND STARS.
In One very handsome Volume, embellished with 133 Cuts,
price only 4s. 6d. cloth, boards,
PETER PARLEY'S TALES ABOUT the
SUN, MOON, and STARS; also the late Comet : a
New and Improved Edition, with great Additions.
" In the evening of a long toilsome life, if a man were to be
obliged solemnly to declare what, without any exception, has
been the most lovely thing which, on the surface of this earth,
it has been Ins good fortune to witness, I conceive that, with-
out hesitation, he might reply, The mind of a young child.'
"We observe with what delight a child beholds light—co-
lours=--flowers—fruit, and every new object that meets his eye;
and we all know, that (before his judgment be permitted to in-
terfere) Tor many yeas he feels—or rather suffers—a thirst
which is almost insatiable.
" He desires, and very naturallydelesires, to know what the
Moon is ?—What are the stars?— Where the rain, wind, and
frost, come from ?—With innocent simplicity, he asks, what
becomes of the light of a candle, when it is blow out ? Any
story, or any history, he greedily ((scours."
London : Printed for Thomas Tegg, 73, Cheapside ; and
sold by all Booksellers.
