There were several books with different stories in them, I think most of them were fairy tales and folk tales. They had two-tone pictures illustrating the stories. the ONLY story I can remember is the tale of little Two-Eyes, who has sisters One-Eye and Three-Eyes.
I'm pretty sure that each cover was a different color, and that there were embossed pictures from the stories inside also on the cover.
Why I'm not sure if it is Collier's Junior Classics - The copies I remember did not have dust jackets. The only pictures of the Collier collection I've found show dust jackets, and not the embossed pictures I remember. Also, I can't find a list of the stories in each volume so I can't figure out if "Little TwoEyes" is one of the stories.
I feel like these books had to have been published in the 1960's or earlier, just from what I remember of the paper and binding style. I think I read these at my grandparent's house, and my parents were kids in the '60s.
They also might be Andrew Lang's color fairy books, but again I cannot find a collection with the covers I remember.
