Grey cloth with line drawn pictures surrounding a multicolored 2.5 x 3.5 book appropriate appliqué. 5.5 x 4.5. White coated dust jackets generally match the front cover but there are exceptions. See the Little Mousie Mousiekin book below.

Series Notes:
1. Later this series was incorporated into the Wee Books for Wee Folks series.
2. In 1928-1929 variant book covers were published. The books' covers had a paste-on (applique) encompassing the entire front cover. The applique cover is basically the same as the dust jacket front cover. These books were published in 1928 and 1929. Examples are shown below. I assume these books came with a dust jacket, but I have not seen one yet. The books with this type of cover are quite scarce.
3. Beginning in 1921 Altemus published four volume Wee Folk's Library Sets. Set #6 included books #1-4 from this series. These boxed sets are very rare.
4. See the Wee Books for Wee Folks section for more information.
