First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Charming copy in bright clean condition although fairly edge worn and bumped at the corners. Fresh looking blue cloth spine. No obvious inscriptions, marks or colouring in and the pages are clean throughout, if a little toned looking as a result, most probably, of the paper stock used in the production of the book. Front cover shows father, wearing a smart suit, sitting in a chair surrounded by his children and, apparently, telling them interesting stories.
