Minarik, Else Holmelund: Little Bear's Friend; Pictures by Maurice Sendak.
An I Can Read Book Harper & Row, New York, 1960. Approx 6 by 9 inches.
64 pages. The boards of this book are rubbed, stained and grubby with
some scribbles.
Corners are bumped. Fixed front paper has small, charming child's
'my book' label in vivid colours. Half title page has a coffee?? stain,
which has continued onto some of the fore edges. There is some minor
childish scribbling to prelims and endpapers. Page 31 has had a
small sticker with the word 'Friede'??? attached. Although there are a
few faults with this book, I feel it is worth owning for the
content/illustrations. Although the boards are clearly in poor
condition I feel the contents themselves are good.
