Under the Mistletoe (RW Classics Edition, Illustrated)

A beautifully illustrated children’s classic that is sure to be a favorite of children and adults alike. Under the Mistletoe is a collection of meaningful poems about life from the sweet mother’s kiss, to a poem about a little sister, a lesson in manners, what they say about gossip, putting away toys, preparing for night, and a sweet evening prayer. Brilliant illustrations are by talented Lizzie Lawson, who married co-author Robert Ellice Mack in September, 1886.

Revised edition: Originally published as Under the Mistletoe in 1886, this revised edition titled, Under the Mistletoe (RW Classics Edition, Illustrated), incorporates editorial revisions as per US Copyright ‘new edition’ definition of ‘derivative work.’ Editorial revisions include: titles and illustration captions; punctuation and grammar; new table of contents with added list of illustrations (eBook version includes clickable links); and all Lizzie Lawson (later Lizzie Mack) illustrations meticulously updated to include removal of pixelations, dust, and debris.
