Description:
Cambridge, MA: Candlewick Press, 1992. First Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good +. The interior of the book is crisp and clean. There is a gift inscription to a former owner on the half title page, but no other marks or wear. The burgundy covers are fresh. The gilt spine lettering is still bright. The dust jacket is not price-clipped and is in excellent condition. The jacket is now in a protective mylar cover, and looks great. Description: The editor "shortened Charles Dickens's original text to make it the perfect length for children too young to read the original version. Using the author's own language, she retains the essential elements of the tale." Benson's full-colour illustrations perfectly reinforce the Victorian drama of the story".

Worse, he is about to lock horns…
