Sobre este artículo
Dover Publications., 1991. Wraps. New. No dust jacket as issued. Qtr-inch tear, back cover, lower end. Clean, unused.. Moore, Frank J (Cover design by).. 1 Large paperback, illustrated card stock glossy covers; stapled binding; card stock heavy pages w/ 10-in. tall character dolls for cutting out. 32 p. 15 color plates. Audience: Children/juvenile. Born circa 1451 of Spanish parents in Italy, Christopher Columbus became a sailor as a teen and learned the science and languages of the sea: navigation, geography, astronomy, and cartography. He married a high-born Portuguese woman who's father had been a captain with Prince Henry the Navigator. This positioned him well to become and overseas explorer, and in 1492, his landings in the Americas have become historically iconic. These paper dolls and changes of clothing are a hands-on cutting project for children to play-act this adventurer, his family members, other captains, and the king and queen who sponsored him. It's also a great adult 'party game' or collectible. Columbus's story is told inside the covers, accompanied by details of each character 'doll'. The text is in English, and the names of the characters are both in English and Spanish.

Sobre Hedgehog's Whimsey Books
Hedgehog's Whimsey Books was born in a random moment when I decided to become a used books seller. Beginning in 2001, I apprenticed myself with a longtime pro in the next town, hoping to learn her secrets. She encouraged my free help but was wary of sharing all those secrets. Nonetheless, she turned me loose when she felt I would not embarrass her; she was impressed, finding I actually knew something about books and authors and styles. I am still learning, and I am having a good time with the random avalanches of books to be recycled into good homes, one by one. Inventory has mounted: my mother downsized her 7,000-plus library, and we (my Geezer and I) went to library book sales, yard emporiums on weekends, estate dispersals, and added the books my kids left behind, wanting to stock their own shelves anew. Some folks simply tooled down our dirt road and left boxes on our porch. Myself? Well, I am also a photographer, journalist, curious stuff collector, avid reader, writer, editor, small-time publisher, and online pontificator. At Hedgehog Enterprises, I do "Words & Pictures by & for Folks with Prickly Backs, Soft Bellies, & Small Brains", established in 1991. Since I have the smallest brain (by unpopular vote), I am the Head Hedgehog. Do I specialize in particular genres? I thought I did, but my barn has lots of Geezer-built shelves, and we have many interests, so topics vary, as do book conditions and editions. I try to describe such, and sometimes have too much fun as I poke along. There is no charge for the therapy of browsing, folks, so find my sites and stay awhile. If a purchase results, know that the tax collector in Newport, New Hampshire, may get a pleasant surprise. Or, I may buy a few more apple cider donuts or sweet potatoes. No pressure. Hedgehogs do have yearnings. If you should visit by chance or by appointment, enjoy our old New Hampshire farmhouse location alongside the Sugar River and its companion recreation Rail Trail, nearby two historic railroad covered bridges just off Chandlers Mill Road. Feel welcome. -- Lucy G Wells, proprietor.
