Christmas gift
This is a Christmas gift for my son who originally had a black and white copy which has disappeared. When he mentioned that I looked for a new one and found the new book in color - I'm sure he'll like it even better than the first one.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Great update to a classic
My brother and I read this repeatedly as young boys. We probably had it on our shelves as often as the library from which we checked it out. This colorized version is a great update.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
