London:: Chatto & Windus,, 1951.. First printing.. Hardcover. Near Fine/poor. 54pp, with illustrated endpapers. 1953 gift inscription to front free endpaper. Alternate pages of characterful illustrations in black and red, and rather feeble verse. Contents clean and firm. Small book, 14x11cms, in very clean pictorial red paper-covered boards, with little scuffs at the spine ends. In the protected unclipped, but torn, pictorial dust jacket, to the same design. This has some slight soiling, and has one-inch chips from the upper corners, with small loss from the other extremities, and some repairs with archival tape to the reverse. The book seems to be riding on the popularity of Helen Bannerman's books, her Little Black Sambo being advertised on the front dust jacket flap, and this being in the same format, but never so popular. A good copy of a cultural relic. (More photographs of this book can be seen on my website)
