Description:
Uk: Macdonald & Jane's, 1979 This Is An Apparent First Of The 12Th In A Series Of 13 Written By Kenneth Bird. "Himself" Is 'A Selfish Irish Dog.' The Series Appears To Be Much Loved But Out Of Print. The 'Ogre' In This Title Is 'A Thing . . . A Steel Dustbin With Arms Reaching Nearly To The Floor.' One Of The Other Series Titles That Appeals To Me Is Himself And The Fake Santas. It Is An Exlibrary Hardcover And Scarce Even As Such. Despite The Many Usual Library Artifacts Present, I Have Rated It Good Plus As It Is Clean And Structurally Sound And The Gilt Titles Are Still Bright. It Looks Like Seven Children Borrowed It Between 1982 And 1991 And There Are Two Stamps, One 'Discard' And One Naming The Elementary School From Whence It Came.
