About This Item
USA: Parent's Magazine Press, 1978 You never know what you will end up with when you have a Jane Yolen book in your hands, but you know it will be worth reading! The woman has incredible range, and here she is, concocting a limited vocabulary, early reader story which is superb! " Some of her awards to date: the Caldecott Medal, two Nebula Awards, two Christopher Medals, the World Fantasy Award, three Mythopoeic Awards, both first and second place in the 2007 Dwarf Stars Award, the Golden Kite Award, the Jewish Book Award, the Association of Jewish Libraries Award, and the World Fantasy Award for Life Achievement" (thanks, Wikipedia). This is stated first edition, first printing with the name of the former young lady featured on the inside cover on the bright yellow endpaper. There is a little bit of edgebashing and corner rubbing and a ding on the upper rear board, but the text is clean and crisp and very good.

I search out used books on principle to highlight their value, keep them circulating and out of the landfill (and just because I am compelled to tell people to "read this"!)
