Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Hugh Marshall (illustrator). 1st Edition. Although born and raised in New Zealand, Roberta Elliott seems to have spent much of her time in Europe and her few published works - all excellent children's books - have largely European settings. "The Miracle" was her second book and is set in Portugal. Before this was "Kirsti and Ruski" (re-named "Kirsti and the Bear" in the U.S.); and it was followed by "The Country Boy" (1967); "The Day of the Cats" (1968) and "A Lump of Gold" (1970). The illustrations, and dust jacket art, here are quite impressive - looking a little Charles Keeping-ish. This copy is inscribed by the author on front endpaper: "To the two D's - the kind of Americans to inspire a better book, & Forrest. With love from Roberta. Firenze 1966". ("Firenze", of course, being Florence, Italy - I told you she spent time in Europe!) Spine ends very slightly softened, and top corners just slightly bumped, otherwise a fine copy in very good, slightly browned dust jacket with minor wear at extremities. Inscribed by Author(s).
