About this Item

First printing of the first edition of this book. Tight clean copy, inscribed and signed by Paul Zelinsky: "To______---Bus Wishes! Paul Zelinsky." All moveables work fine. Two pull tabs have short tears near them and there are a few creases on some of the pulls, but this is a great first printing of a book that is usually worn to tatters. No previous owner writing or marks, no writing other than by Zelinsky, no wear to edges, etc. At least Very Good Plus; I've mentioned all the flaws I saw. Very hard to find a true first in this condition, and it's signed. Please see photos. Seller Inventory # 100092132

About this title

Synopsis:

The 25th anniversary edition of a beloved classic

Over a million young readers have enjoyed the wheels that go round, doors that open and shut, and people who go bumpety-bump. Today it remains as fresh and engaging as when it was first published twenty five years ago.

To celebrate the anniversary, Paul O. Zelinsky has created an all-new cover featuring twenty five, hidden 25s. Some are the number 25 and others are 25 of something in the picture. Can you find them all?
