The Animated Tea Service. By R. André.
A Victorian fairy tale about two children who speculate about whether dishes, spoons, teacups, teapots and cutlery come to life when no one is watching. As they begin to think about the shapes of various tea ware, they become creative with ideas about how they could use tea things to make a "jolly fellow". The tea kettle over the fire, sang a song of "Hubble-ey, Bubble-ey" as bedtime grew near.
English artist William Roger Snow (1834-1907) published under the names Clifford Merton and Richard André. He was a prolific and well-known Victorian-era writer and illustrator, producing more than one hundred books in the 1880s alone. Some of his illustrations include the original Cinderella, Puss and Boots, Red Riding Hood among many others.
A much read and worn copy. Nevertheless, a charmingly beautiful book.
