A propos de cet article

A super, complete five-volume set of Sylvia Waugh’s modern children's classic. All five volumes are true UK first editions, first impressions, with each copyright page displaying the full publisher's number line descending to "1". Includes The Mennyms (1993), Mennyms in the Wilderness (1994), Mennyms Under Siege (1995), Mennyms Alone (1996), and Mennyms Alive (1997). Dust Jackets: (All five Very Good+/Near Fine) jackets are original, correct, and unclipped, preserving Patrick Benson's brilliant illustrations. Because the volumes were issued over a five-year period, there is a minor, varying degree of light sunning/spine fade across the set. This is common for the inks used on this series. Otherwise, the jackets are crisp, sharp, and exceptionally well-preserved, with no edge wear, chips, or tears.Books (Fine): The books themselves are in pristine, flawless condition. The cloth boards are sharp and square. Internally, the pages are fresh, crisp, and bright. The set is entirely free from foxing, toning, spotting, or previous owner signatures. An exemplary collector's copy. Biographical Note:Sylvia Waugh’s debut novel, The Mennyms, won the prestigious 1994 Guardian Children's Fiction Prize, establishing her as a major voice in contemporary British children's literature. Her masterful tale of a family of life-sized rag dolls living secretly in a suburban London house is perfectly complemented by the artwork of Patrick Benson. Benson, a recipient of the Mother Goose Award and the Kurt Maschler Award, provides the iconic dust jacket illustrations, bringing the quiet, poignant world of the Mennyms to life.…

Description de la boutique

I have collected books most of my life. My collection has reduced now to about 4,000 items. I list a few more as time goes by! It is difficult sometimes to allow old friends to move on. Of course, they can find fresh enthusiasm from their new owners. No matter how many items you handle, there's always excitement and interest. It is vital however that my items are described accurately and I would hope to offer good value. If you see something that you feel is 'too high' for your pocket, don't hesitate to make me an offer. I try to keep the postage costs down, and within the United Kingdom this will be free. Posting abroad will be competitive, and often I will not ask for additional amounts if this is viable. But weight of items is the deciding factor. I will add images to my descriptions, and I hope that the combination will help you to decide. Regardless, always double check or take time to contact me for further information, or merely just to clarify a point. Ask for more images. If I can reduce anything I will do so. If you purchase more than one item, then offering a decent discount is likely. If items are not as described or you have a valid problem with any item, then I am happy to make a full or partial refund. This will be in line with all Statutory guidelines e.g returning the book in the condition it was delivered, and do let me know as quickly as possible. If damage has occurred then try to provide images. Ring me on 01352-810931…
