Seller's Description:
Very Good in Very Good jacket. Size: 4to-over 9.75"-12" tall; Straight, solid ex-lib in unclipped jacket with no call tag on backstrip, just a little unfaded spot (see image). Camoflauged sticker pull on head of dj near gutter expertly touched up. Displays very well. No page tears, no names save for a school stamp in the navy blue portion of the title page which isn't a distraction. Tomi Ungerer's little blonde orphan Tiffany is far from helpless--she is not afraid of the robbers and instead reforms them, converting their evil into goodness. By the end of the story, the robbers are using their ill-gotten gains to create a kinder, better world for other unhappy children who have been neglected by a thoughtless society. At the time of the book's first publication, Tomi Ungerer summed up the moral of the story as, 'Whatever the color of money, it is never too late to make good use of it, ' an intriguingly ambivalent statement that serves as a good indication of the playful, unconventional, sometimes provocative and always entertaining nature of this author.
