Notes

  • Apparent first publication. One WorldCat record claims to have an 1828 publication ({{OCLC|901583982}}), but that is clearly an error since the author was born in 1826.
  • Individual chapters, which could be viewed as separate stories (making this book a collection) are: Brownie and the cook; Brownie and the cherry tree; Brownie and the farmyard; Brownie's ride; Brownie on the ice; and Brownie and the clothes.
  • Wood-engraved illustrations signed "HP" and "H. Paterson" (i.e., Helen Paterson Allingham). 6 plates of leaves, not included in the page count.
  • 4 pages of publisher's advertisements at the end, not included in the page count.
  • Data from WorldCat.
