It was also translated into English albeit bowdlerised by Mary Stockdale and published in London in 1783-4 by Mary's father John Stockdale. The work remained popular until the middle of the nineteenth century. Berquin's stories consisted of events that might happen to children in their everyday lives - they did not contain fairy tales or other imaginative literature. His books envision childhood reading as a familial exercise; for example some of his "stories" are actually plays with parts for every member of the family. J. Stockdale et al hardcover

Contemporary calf binding with red leather spine label. Leather rubbed. Pages toned with some worming to margins. Binding sound. Hamilton calls for an engraved frontispiece by S. Hill of Boston that is not present in this copy. These morality stories for children by the French author and poet Arnaud Berquin 1747-1791 originally appeared in monthly installments in a magazine called L' Ami Des Enfans. The tales were so popular they were collected and published together in French and English. Berquin's work is notable for its realism and lack of fantasy - no castles or supernatural powers are found within these pages. He wrote with the "conviction that children should be addressed directly in language they could readily understand."
