Item description from seller

1st thus 1979. Very good condition in a very good dustwrapper. Abridged edition by Jean Watson, who has pruned some of the old-fashioned phrases and lengthy descriptions less suited to modern young readers, whilst preserving the MacDonald magic. 9 x 6 ins. Blue cloth. Wonderful b/w illustrations. A story about Princess Irene who is in danger from the mountain goblins. A magical story to be enjoyed by children from 8 years upwards. George MacDonald's writing had a great influence on C.S. Lewis, who said "I fancy I have never written a book in which I did not quote from him". A story about goodness from this 19th Century Christian story-teller, whose wonderful and timeless stories for children, illuminate Christianity. Minimal bumping to spine. Contents clean. Price-cut wrapper has a few foxspots on verso and is slightly edge rubbed/worn. Packaged with care and promptly dispatched.
