A manuscript commonplace book compiled by a child, consisting of a variety of comic drawings and short poems. The contents range from fairly accomplished pen sketches, to hand-coloured drawings of children and animals, to a colour sketch after J. M. W. Turner. The material ranges from 1915 to 1963, but is concentrated in the 1910s. The compiler usually states the name of the contributor to each page.
