A propos de cet article

Pots and Pedlars (Time for Reading Series) Publication Date: 1975 (Third impression noted in some copies; this is the 1975 edition) ISBN: 0602223148 / 9780602223144 Format: Paperback, 64 pages Condition: As New / Fine For sale is an exceptionally well-preserved copy of Time for Stories: Pots and Pedlars, a charming 1975 children's anthology from the respected Ginn "Time for Reading" / "Time for Stories" educational series. This volume stands out for its delightful selection of international folk tales, fables, and poems, beautifully brought to life by illustrator Rosie Evans. Condition Highlights (As New): This copy is in truly outstanding, near-mint condition — essentially unread and untouched since publication. The covers are bright, clean, and free of creases, scuffs, or fading. The spine is tight and uncracked with sharp corners. All pages are crisp, white, and unmarked with no inscriptions, library stamps, stickers, or writing. The black-and-white interior illustrations are sharp, and the vibrant circular colour cover illustration remains vivid. No foxing, no yellowing, no odour. A pristine example that would satisfy even the most discerning collector. Content Overview: This 64-page reader gathers a rich variety of stories and poems suitable for young readers (approx. ages 7–10). Highlights include: The Magic Iron Pot (English folk tale) The Timid Hares (Hindu fable) Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (German folk tale) Why the Baby says ‘Goo’ (Red Indian myth) The Nutmeg Tree (poems by Edith Sitwell) Stone Soup (Irish story) The Brave Pedlar (folk tale) Jack and his Brothers (Norse tale) The Stone Monkey (Chinese story) The book opens with a contents page and acknowledgements crediting sources such as Beacon Literary Reader and various contributors. It concludes with the engaging tales that blend adventure, wisdom, and cultural diversity — perfect for classroom reading, bedtime stories, or nostalgic collectors of vintage educational books. About the Contributors: Cecilia Obrist / Phyllis Pickard: Key figures in compiling and editing the "Time for Stories" series for Ginn & Company.

Evans’ artwork captures the folk-tale spirit with warmth and detail, making this volume particularly visually appealing among mid-1970s readers. A scarce survival in this condition from a classic educational series. . This title’s mix of familiar favourites and lesser-known gems, combined with period charm and excellent preservation, makes it a standout.…
