wondering if this is hand written or printed on first inside page
I am wondering for those who have this book in paperback, does the first inside page say \"For all girls who love to make very pretty things\" Jane Eayre Fryer
can't tell if this is hand written or printed in the book..

Terrific book for young girls and older girls, too!
This book, and the whole Mary Frances series, is a wonderful resource for teaching girls crafts and skills useful in everyday life..

While I agree with all that this book is lovely as a nostalgia item, I would like to hear from someone who's actually used it in conjunction with a modern child.

I'm glad I didn't buy this book new, as I would have been seriously annoyed to find that this fairly expensive paperback is neither remarkably attractive, nor very practical, since it does not include the crucial patterns.

I had the copy of this book that was purchased for my mother in 1920 and I used it as a nine year old to learn to sew - almost 50 years ago.
