Item description from seller

"First published in 1937 and a 1938 Newbery Honor book, Bright Island is Mabel L. Robinson's beloved coming-of-age story of Thankful Curtis, a spirited girl raised on a small island off the Maine coast who must leave home to attend school on the mainland. This Random House 75th Anniversary Edition features the original illustrations by Lynd Ward. Published by Random House Books for Young Readers in 2012, this 276-page hardcover is perfect for young adult and middle-grade readers, fans of classic coming-of-age fiction, and collectors of Newbery Honor titles. This copy is a 75th Anniversary First Edition in Good condition. The back of the dust jacket shows a liquid mark (pictured); the jacket's interior has a plastic-style coating, so the hardcover beneath appears unaffected. Binding is tight; pages are clean with no writing, markings, or highlighting observed. Priced aggressively for the condition — a good copy of a Newbery Honor classic. Please review the description for full condition details. Ships carefully packaged.".
