Title: The Cabin Key
Description: Harcourt Brace & Co. 1994. (ISBN: 9780152138844). Hardcover, 11.3 x 8.8 x 0.4 inches. Hardback with D/J in good condition. 1994 1st edition Harcourt Brace & Co. In chatty, conversational prose, a girl describes her family's enjoyment of their cabin in the woods. Gloria Rand (who previously collaborated with her husband, Ted Rand, on Prince William) achieves a hushed immediacy with a first-person, present-tense narration. The youngster leads readers on a tour of the house and its surroundings as she performs her chores. She stops to recount family stories, occasionally interrupting herself to continue with the task at hand. "I hope a bear doesn't come out of hibernation early and surprise me! I better get back to the cabin." The lengthy text is laden with old-fashioned homey details - a hand-cranked phonograph, an icebox, stories before the fire. Ted Rand also conveys a sense of bygone days in his crayon and acrylic artwork-kerosene lamps cast a cozy glow over homemade quilts and rough-hewn beams. - used books, secondhand books, out of print books, hard to find books, for sale, second-hand books, college books, student books, nonfiction, first edition, signed copies, non-fiction books delivered world wide.
