Description: "Green Knowe is let for the summer, and installed are two cheerful, batty grown-ups and three interesting children. One of these is English, one Polish and one Chinese. Their adventures stem from exploration of the river near the house and dip happily each side of the line between reality and fantasy."

Excellent b&w illustrations throughout.

Glossy pictorial covers are slightly faded, with creasing near the spine (refer to image). Negligible stain on rear. Slight damage to the first few pages where a staple was removed. The remainder are in very good, unmarked condition, with not a jot of foxing in sight, and only the slightest hint of tanning. Binding is very tight.
