Orig. published in 1936, then reprinted in 1942, this is a 1944 reprint, SIGNED by the AUTHOR on title page & again on the facing page following a lovely long inscription dedicated to a little girl named Lizbeth Ann, dated 1959. Oblong small octavo (7.5" x 8.5") has yellow cloth-covered boards with an elaborate jungle scene decorating the front cover. In 44 pages (unpaginated), each with a rhyme that tells a story about the various animals of the Panamanian jungle, where the author wrote this & many of her other books; this one remains her most popular! Condition is VG: generally very clean, with a few small spots to exterior. Binding secure but a little shaky. Pages moderately tanned, commensurate with age, but unmarked. Mild rubbing to extremities & light corner bumping. A handsome copy with a lovely personalized inscription & signature that will make the author & her "small friends" (as she calls them) come alive! Our photos depict the exact book you will receive, never "stock" images of books we don't actually have! Same day shipping on all orders received by 2 pm Weekdays (Pacific time); later orders, Weekends, & holidays ship very next business day.
