Seller's Description:
The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly. All pages and cover are intact (including the dust cover, if applicable). Spine may show signs of wear. Pages may include limited notes and highlighting. May NOT include discs, access code or other supplemental materials.
When I ordered this Eric Carle favorite and it had good condition ratings I assumed it was a working copy of the book. I sadly put it on my shelf along side of my other non working copy that does not chirp any more. With these kind of special books equipped with special sound components, a good rating should include a working copy. Very disappointed indeed!

The Very Quiet Cricket
This is a sweet little book! I would recommend this book to any parent for their children! Very pleased by the way the author put this content together.
