Synopsis
A beloved classic is lovelier than ever Barbara Cooney's story of Alice Rumphius, who longed to travel the world, live in a house by the sea, and do something to make the world more beautiful, has a timeless quality that resonates with each new generation. The countless lupines that bloom along the coast of Maine are the legacy of the real Miss Rumphius, the Lupine Lady, who scattered lupine seeds everywhere she went. Miss Rumphius received the American Book Award in the year of publication. To celebrate the thirtieth anniversary of two-time Caldecott winner Barbara Cooney's best-loved book, Viking has reoriginated the illustrations, going back to the original art to ensure state-of-the-art reproduction of Cooney's exquisite artwork. The art for Miss Rumphius has a permanent home in the Bowdoin College Museum of Art., A beloved classic is lovelier than ever!

- 1***k (1086)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent ! This was a wonderful transaction that I had with the seller. With the purchased of these many books, the seller put them in a cardboard box for protection . The quality of these books are exactly as described, and the condition was new . I received my purchase quickly and I had a quick response from seller when I had a question. I would purchase again from seller. Thank you for your kind service.When Jesus Returns: Living in Expectation of the End Times -- Jan Markell - Pape (#387918157412)
- 2***d (4325)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseGood seller, shipped fast. Little problem with the box it was shipped in. It was packed with these books & 2 others & had come open in shipping. The Post Office put some heavy white tape to hold it together & there was small damage to some of the items, not anything to really complain about. I wanted all these items & I appreciate the discount that was given. Will buy from again & tell the Shipping Dept. to be careful about over-loading the box. Blessings.
