This is The Little Lame Prince and The Adventures of a Brownie. To explain the insert that accompanied this volume, the inserts were place in the book and featured the NEXT months volume. So given this insert is actually for this title, Little Lame Prince, the previous owner removed the insert from the PREVIOUS book received and placed it in the following months book to match the insert with the titled edition. Inserts were place in the series to let subscribers know what title was coming the following month. It is a nice touch to have the insert matching the book title as it was saved and place in the book when it arrived.

The Little Lame Prince by Dinah Maria Mulock was first published in 1875. It is a classic children's story about a Prince who is paralyzed and exiled to a tower.
