Review
"An attractive edition of a favorite story--the complete text is illustrated with a generous number of lively watercolors that make entertainingly explicit such details as just how the Elephant's Child carried his provisions--very good illustration."

Alan Baker (illustrator). First illustrated edition, published in 1982 by Macmillan Children's Books, London. This is a near fine copy in the original colour-printed boards, and it appears unread. The spine ends and board edges show only the slightest signs of dulling. The book is signed and includes a small remarque depicting a curious, elf-like figure in a green jacket, which adds a unique touch. Overall, it remains in excellent condition: tight binding, bright pages, and clean throughout. Physical details: 28 pages with colour illustrations. Series: A Just So Story by Rudyard Kipling. Note: The Just So Stories were first published in 1902. Seller Inventory # ABE-1774686422409
