Hardcover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Janet Lambert. Practically Perfect. New York: E. P. Dutton & Co., Inc., 1947. Fifth Printing (November 1953). A warm, post-war teen novel in Lambert's beloved Parrish-Reed saga, Practically Perfect follows Penny Parrish, now a stage star balancing her glamorous Broadway life wi…th matters of the heart and family. Through gentle humor and wholesome sentiment, Lambert evokes the optimism, duty, and romance that defined her long-running inter-family series for girls. Condition: Good (Ex-Library). Tan cloth boards titled and decorated in maroon; spine label remnant and shelf mark; mild soiling and a diagonal surface mark on front cover. Textblock toned but sound, binding tight. Front and rear endpapers stamped 'Selbyville Public Library / Selbyville Delaware,' with pocket and date-due slip (last use Aug 28 1978). Interior clean, occasional light foxing. No dust jacket. Edition Notes: Copyright 1947; printing line lists five impressions (1947-1953). Illustrated title page with vignette of a young couple reading together, consistent with Dutton's house design for Lambert's early 1950s printings. About the Author: Janet Lambert (1893 - 1973) wrote more than fifty novels for teen readers between 1941 and 1969, many chronicling connected Army and Navy families across generations. Her books are prized today for their authentic period detail, upbeat tone, and portrayal of duty, friendship, and youthful ambition during and after World War II.
