The Brownies: Their Book

by Palmer Cox

The Brownies are a band of tiny sprites who come out at night, when people are asleep, and try their hand at whatever people do by day, in rhyming verse under Palmer Cox’s own drawings. Cox was born in Granby, in Quebec, and his Brownies were so popular that a Kodak camera was named after them. This is the first book of them, published in 1887.
