Note:
Anne is known mainly as a writer, Dillwyn mainly as an artist/illustrator, but:
"[Anne] and her younger brother Dillwyn, her only sibling, created two children's books, dividing equally the writing and illustrating work, and one book of literary sketches. She wrote and illustrated two more juveniles on her own." --John P. Reid, "Anne Parrish", Collecting Delaware Books (jnjreid.com/cdb)
This is one of the two jointly credited children's books.
Synopsis:
"Even the minute lore of the Beatrix Potter library can only rival, not sail ahead of, this enchanting study. It is easy for fairies and animals to make a little man their own special property, but to endow his days with sufficiently peppery adventures is an achievement. ...
"The illustrations are an inseparable part of the volume and show tremendous spirit and fancy ..."
--Laura Benet NY Tribune 1923-12-02 pSM24
