    I had a problem after placing my order. I contacted the seller who responded within an hour and resolved the issue with no hassle. This book was a fair price and received today. I failed to notice, but the description did indicate it was missing the dust jacket. I highly recommend this seller.

  • Great Read-Aloud

    This is a great read-aloud book for children. As an adult, I enjoyed it too. It is a simple tale, but the characters are so original that you feel as if they are friends. I recommend this book.
