King Penguin K26. Penguin 1st Edition, published 1946.
A Book of Toys is a gloriously eccentric little confection that has children as its main audience but also, I suspect, has one eye to adult readers at the same time. The book is presented as a sort of chronological survey of children’s toys from around the world starting as far back as 3000BC and coming through to the 20th century.
