48mo. 16pp. A moralizing tale, relating the story of Lucy's newfound comprehension of social and moral betterment by observing the natural industriousness and care of animals like bees, dogs, and cats. Bound in pale pink wrappers. Mild rubs to edges, splits to head and tail of delicate spine. A very good copy. The 1840 issuance is quite scarce, with only one recorded institutional holding, suggesting the persistent popularity of the title.
