Wonderful bright colour illustrations upon each page. Above-average wear. Former school library copy with usual markings inside but none to exterior. Although well-worn, this remains a decent copy of this delightful work. (Incidentally, this book would probably be banned from today's politically-correct schools as its external artwork includes what later became better-know as swastikas at each end of spine and in lower right corner of front board.); 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall; Little Eagle - A Story of Indian Life Series. Fair .
