Publisher's Synopsis

The Adventures Of A Penny is a children's book written by E. Perring and originally published in 1863. The story follows a penny as it travels from person to person and place to place, experiencing a variety of adventures along the way. The penny is initially given to a young boy as a reward for completing a chore, and from there it passes through the hands of a street vendor, a beggar, a wealthy merchant, and many others. Each new owner of the penny has a unique story to tell, and the penny itself becomes a witness to a wide range of human experiences. The book is both entertaining and educational, providing young readers with a glimpse into the lives of people from different walks of life during the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
