About This Item
A sweet tale about a Scottish terrier named Buttons trying to fit in with the bigger dogs. Written by Alf Evers, who was known for his sweet, fable-like stores for children, and illustrated beautifully by Marguerite Kirmse, who was known for her drawings of dogs.
This volume is unfortunately in poor condition, though this is largely based on the state of the paper wrappers. The staple bound wrappers have separated from the book, but the pages inside remain together and in tact. There are crayon marks on the front cover, and tears to the wrappers that have been fixed on the inside with masking tape. There is a tear to the top of the front wrapper, and the first page.
Other than a small crayon mark on the final page, and the masking tape on the inside of the front and back wrappers, the inside of the book is in excellent condition, and is filled with beautiful illustrations and a sweet story that may still be enjoyed.
