Very cute blacklines for children to cut, color and paste. Each picture has a didactic read-aloud. Some are quite simple, others are quite detailed like the intricate Scherenschnitte.

The American drawing-book/19th Century Books
The American drawing-book : a manual for the amateur, and basis of study for the professional artist : especially adapted to the use of public and private schools, as well as home instruction / by J.G. Chapman.
I found this at 19th Century Books, part of University of Pittsburgh Digital Library System. It's quite a thorough and professional drawing course. The first section is just learning lines, and if you skip to the next section on rudimentary drawing, you'll see why you need to master this.
