Description: CONDITION: AS NEW, UNREAD 2013 Sourcebooks/Jabberwocky hardcover (pictorial boards) & NEW dust jacket (in mylar cover), first edition, 2nd printing. Why "AS NEW?" The is some lift to the front board - not too bad, but there. I believe this was done when shipped to me - packing was not great. Absolutely adorable and fun color illustrations by Thomas Docherty. CONTENT: With rhyming text reminiscent of Dr. Seuss's work, this book refuses to be read silently. A Snatchabook, a lonely creature who loves books, is loose in Burrow Down. Books are disappearing every night, and "Eliza Brown at Number 3/was keen to solve the mystery./She planned one night to lie in wait/and use a pile of books as bait./Long hours passed without a peep/(she'd nearly fallen fast asleep)/when, suddenly, Eliza heard/a flap of wings:/a bat?/a bird?" Once the Snatchabook is discovered, Eliza quickly hatches a plan, resulting in a satisfying ending. The gorgeous illustrations are a perfect match for the lively text. This book is a fabulous fit for both storytime and one-on-one reading. Children will be begging for this book to be read to them every night - clever ones will claim they want to keep the Snatchabook happy. Oh, after the Snatchabook returns all the stolen tomes to their rightful bookshelves, he’s welcome to show up at bedtime in the forest to listen to wonderful stories. Shipping via USPS media mail within 2 days of order. Questions welcome & answered.
