"All By Herself" by Kay Clark

“All By Herself,” a quiet book from the 1950s by Kay Clark was
 manufactured by Plankie Toys in Younstown, Ohio.
The first page introduces little ones to a charming rhyme about a
little girl who dresses herself.

Each page has a special attachment that challenges little people to
learn “how” to button, lace, zip, snap, fold and tie.

The original illustrations printed on this fabric quiet
book were drawn by “The Twins.”

Originally quiet books were handmade to entertain toddlers quietly
during church services. This little book is perfect for
distracting a small child during a long sermon!

    Kathy, that looks like a nice finding you got there! I have to admit that I have never seen a quiet book before in my life. The shoe lace tying page looks like a very innovative way at tactile learning. This is one way to introduce arts and crafts to the young and inquisitive minds. I blog about painting and handicrafts once in a while

    Thanks Arun, I think some younger members of our family might enjoy a new one of these. The one above here is a bit too fragile for play anymore. I think it is from the 1950s?
