Good Behavior, 1881, With Some Doodles walnut wood but which now I thinkOne final book for the week, as it seemed like a nice idea to end encouraging good behavior! In addition to including lots of behavioral instruction some of it well worth heeding still, some happily outmoded as well as Thomas Jefferson's 10 rules as an appendix ("#1. Take things always by the smooth handle"), what I especially love about this are the doodles at either end, which seem directly counter to the sort of behavior being proscribed! 7" x 4 1
