Dust jacket price-clipped, front panel and spine bright and clean, minor wear to edges and extremities, white back panel mildly soiled. An outstandingly nice copy of a very hard-to-find book. 12-year-old Susan, crammed into a London flat with her exuberant family, "longs for the country. She is haunted by her dream of a country cottage, and by a mysterious conviction that she will find it. When her father loses part of the opera he is writing, Susan undertakes a search that starts with an absent-minded music teacher in Scotland and culminates in a hilarious chase across London after a famous conductor, and her dream begins to come true.". First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good. Illus. by Richard Kennedy. 5.25 x 8 in. (13cm x 20cm).
