Simple Poems for Infant Minds is a children's verse book published in New York in 1856 by Kiggins & Kellogg, with wood engravings credited to Benjamin F. Pease and William Barritt, aimed at very young readers. The single picture shows a girl with long hair reaching toward a tall, domed, barred cage with an open side door, rendered in dense parallel hatching that a designer could borrow for a vintage engraved look.
