The Land of Lost Toys

Classic children's novel, first published in 1900. According to Wikipedia: "Juliana Horatia Ewing (née Gatty) (1841–1885) was an English writer of children's stories. She was the second of ten children of the Reverend Alfred Gatty, the vicar of Ecclesfield in Yorkshire, and Margaret Gatty, who was herself a children's author... Roger Lancelyn Green calls her works the "first outstanding child-novels" in English literature.[1] Among her works, which are notable for their sympathetic insight into child-life, their admiration for military life, and their reflection of her strong Anglican faith, are: Mrs. Overtheway's Remembrances (1869), A Flat Iron for a Farthing (1872), Six to Sixteen (1875), Jan of the Windmill (1876), Jackanapes (1884), Daddy Darwin's Dovecot (1884),[2] and The Story of a Short Life (1885)."
