    About Seller: Book as Described. Packaged well to arrive in the listed condition. Shipping padded bag had a hole in it but Seller also wrapped book in bubble wrap that prevented the book from being damaged by the USPS. GREAT Price and mailed quickly. Grade A+ Seller. About Book: Trollhunters Novel. My kid and I enjoy the series and wanted to get him this book to help him to be more interested in reading. Great format and type layout for young readers. Mostly text with some nice images.

I’d bought wrong book and they quickly refunded me!! Which is tremendous since most sellers give folks a hard time on refunds!! Certainly one of the best mega sellers on eBay. Waupaca Dave and old Popeye and Rogue and Kevin and Rufus and Dilly and Simba and Emma the bulldozer bulldog!&!!
