Book Description

New York: Harcourt Brace & World, 1962. Hard Cover. Fine/Good. Spanfellar, James J.. Who was the strange boy that Charlotte and Emma met in the lane one morning on their way to school? Where did he come from? Why was he here? Whoever he was, he taught each of the children in the small English village to fly like birds during that wonderful, never-to-be-forgotten summer. There was an eerie and exciting moonlight flight, day-long expeditions to a remote and lovely little lake, and one daring jouney to the sea when Charlotte learned to swoop like a gull from the cliff top. In this haunting story, the reader enters into the children's world completely and at the end feels with them some of the sadness of growing up. 155 pages, cloth cover, black & white illustrations. DJ is sun-lightened on the front; small chips along top front and two small tears. Heavy wear at corners and spine ends. Moderate wear along spine hinge. Jacket is in a protective cover. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
