Written By: Margaret Wise Brown
Pictures by: Garth Williams
Copyright: 1954
Publisher: Simon and Schuster, New York
Binding: Hardcover
Condition: Vintage - Used. Good Vintage Condition. This is the original 1954 release. It is in good condition considering its age. The most noticeable deterioration is on the outside covers. There's wear, lightly faded, gold on the binding is very worn. Front cover has an "A" written in pencil, and the front-inside cover has a child's name, "Sherry Kardash" written in ink. The inside is in much better condition. Pages are starting to yellow due to age, there are slight folds at the corners, but there are no tears, missing or loose pages, it's all a bit more worn than shown in pictures due to lighting. There are a couple of stains. Pictures are the best way to access a book's condition. The last few pictures we've zoomed in on areas of concern. Little Golden Books are generally intended for children ages 3–5, but they can also be enjoyed by older children who are just starting to read, generally 5 and up. We never want to crease the books by fully opening them, this is why you'll notice the pictures are not always straight. If you still need more information, we are happy to answer any questions and send additional pictures. Please review all pictures and make sure you love this item before purchasing, we can't accept returns. Please remember these are ANTIQUE and VINTAGE items, they are NOT new, every effort has been made to show any scratches, wear and tear and imperfections.
