New York: Doubleday, 1955. Hardcover. Very Good. Beige cloth boards with green lettering on the spine and decoration on the cover. 512 p. Black & White illustrations. "My grandmother read to my cousins and me from this book and I intend to read to my grandchildren from this book too. It's a great collection of short fun stories of a large variety of types. Comedies, drama, folk tales, fairy tales, so many. This was a hard back copy and will last quite a while. small enough to travel with but not too small to easily read from. Very glad to have it!" - review by Marijo Book is in very good condition with usual edge wear and rubbing at edges and corners. The front lower corner is worn and a little split right at the tip. There is slight toning to the inside covers and, perhaps, to the pages, it's hard to tell. Penciled name erased from the front end page. No dust jacket.
