Publisher's Synopsis
This delightful book is a facsimile of the first edition of the 'Book of Games' which was published in 1889.  It is without doubt one of Kate Greenaway's finest works, combining her characteristic charm with her delicacy as an illustrator. Over 75 games are described from such old favourites as 'See-Saw' and 'Hide and Seek' to other less well-known games popular in Victorian times.
