Baby's Own
I found this fantastic online resource of classic children's books at the Library of Congress more or less by accident.
You can flippity-flip your way through all manner of pretty books here.
And here's one of my very favourites: Walter Crane's Baby's Own Aesop (1887). So lovely.

I have a miniature edition of this somewhere ... the trouble with miniature things being how easy they are to misplace. I see that I could pick up a first edition for the quite reasonable price of $400 on ABE.
