Product Information

Burnett was a British American novelist and playwright, best known for her novels Little Lord Fauntleroy , A Little Princess, and The Secret Garden . For those of you who have not read it, the book tells the tale of Mary Lennox, orphaned when a cholera epidemic kills her parents in India and she is shipped home to live in the home of her reclusive uncle on the edge of the North York moors. Aesop is credited with many fables that have endured for centuries, relating morals and truth to young and old using animals as the main characters in each story.

The damaged horse is then sold to various masters at whose hands he experiences cruelty and neglect. Exchanging Valentines can be an awkward process, especially when you consider “Vinegar Valentines” and other snarky sentiments - whatever your tastes, enjoy the sweet and sour cards alike in this gallery!

Beautiful colours and great whimsical imagery and elements that told the story and made me feel quite nostalgic. Even though the book was intended for children, it impacted all generations and caused everyone who read it to take a look at the inhumane treatment horses received.
