About This Item
Philadelphia: J.B. Lippincott Company, 1965. Cloth. Near Fine/Very Good +. Lois Lenski. SIGNED BY LOIS LENSKI on the half-title. A very solid copy to boot of the 1965 stated 1st edition. Tight and Near Fine in a crisp, price-intact (and price-clipped) dustjacket, with light rubbing along the panels, light chipping at the spine ends and several very small closed tears. Still though, an attractive, very presentable copy of an uncommon later Lenski title. Octavo., nicely illustrated thruout by Lois Lenski herself.
