AOK. Item as described, reasonable condition (as described), excellent price, reasonable packing and shipping time, no problems. Thanks. (Sorry, I don't do star ratings when some are automatic, as it's unfair to buyers to have eBay pre-empt any of the scores. You should complain to eBay, as your star ratings would have been very high.) I can't rate the product until I read it. It's unfair for eBay to require a product rating in order to send feedback! The guys at eBay are heavily into control.

    Lost book found

    I had bought this version in the 80s. In my many moves I lost it. I love the illustrations so much. I was very excited to see it on e-bay and bought it immediately. So very glad I did.

  • Nice holiday book

    I bought this book, wanting a new (to me) Christmas book. I've heard that the audio tape of Dylan Thomas reading the book in the '50's is especially good too. I liked the stories--his descriptions of relatives and his view of the season from a little boys perspective really does bring back memories of Christmas as a child sees it. Really nice. '

  • A Child's Christmas in Wales

    I was so excited to get this book! I work in a library and saw it in the closed stacks, but I wanted my own copy. I had heard of it but never read it. The story is wonderful, but I fell in love with the beautiful illustrations by Trina Schart Hyman which greatly enhance the story and takes us back to a kinder,gentler time. It's a great anytime book.

  • Marvelous book !!

    This is a classic story and magnificently illustrated.
