<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 2774058, member: 33"]The <i>Annual Report of the American Tract Society </i>shows the title <i>Address To a Child</i> as the first number in Series II of tract books they published for children. Many of the annual reports are digitized in HathiTrust. Also in Google Books. Are you located in the U.S.? If not, you might not be able to view this. The earliest mention I found of that title is in the annual report for 1829. Of course it may have been reprinted for years, so it would be hard to tell when yours was printed. Here is a link to the 1829 annual report. I did a Ctrl-F "find in page" but don't know if that will come through in the link. <a href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=hvd.ah3irh&view=1up&seq=380&q1=address%20child" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=hvd.ah3irh&view=1up&seq=380&q1=address%20child" rel="nofollow">https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=hvd.ah3irh&view=1up&seq=380&q1=address child</a></p><p><br /></p><p>If it does work, scroll down on the page that comes up first and it will be listed at the bottom, under "Children's Tracts, Broadsheets, and Handbills."[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
