This 187 pp. book is subtitled, "Being the Everyday Life of Great-A, Little-A and Bouncing-B". It is a delightful 109 year old children's book, with beautiful color illustrations interspersed. Since machine printed color only started appearing in books around 1900, most in 1909, generally only had black & white art. A prior owner's bookplate is affixed just inside the front board, and there is a 3 line inscription on the first flyleaf. Internally, the rear gutter is separating, but is otherwise clean and intact. Externally, the book is slightly cocked and shows moderate edge and corner wear. The color "paste-on" on the front board, while lightly soiled, is still quite attractive. Photos upon request.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
