Apple-Pie ABC — McLoughlin Brothers

Originally published in 1888 by McLoughlin Brothers of New York, this clever rhyming ABC book teaches the alphabet while telling the story of an apple pie ("A was an apple pie ever so nice") and all the people who interact with it ("H is for Harry who hid it away, And had it to nibble on, many a day"). Fourteen illustrations, in color and black and white, illustrate the story.
