Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Lovely book in gift quality. Firmly readable. 72 pages. Quality Hardback : vintage hard cover edition in very good (minus) clean condition, red pictorial covers w flowers. With clipped dust cover, with signs of wear and chipping at edges, spine, small closed tear. Previous owner libris paste-down, woodblock style with name imprinted. Includes dust cover, worn and with spine chipping. Book has some minimal fray at corners and edges. It still presents as a lovely book to share with children and would make a lovely gift for the vintage book lover. A typical used book with some signs of being read then stored, slight wear to edges and spine. As to be expected with older used books they can have minor defects. Please see our photos. Overall a truly nice vintage copy, excellent reading enjoyment with great illustrations to complement the story. ABOUT THE STORY: Young Ferdinand does not enjoy butting heads with other young bulls, preferring instead to sit under a cork tree smelling the flowers. His mother is concerned that he might be lonely and tries to persuade him to play with the other calves, but when she sees that Ferdinand is content as he is, she leaves him alone. Ferdinand grows to be the biggest bull in the herd and he often spends time alone. All the other bulls dream of being chosen to compete in the bullfights in Madrid, but Ferdinand still prefers smelling the flowers instead. One day, five men come to the pasture to choose a bull for the bullfights. Ferdinand is again on his own, sniffing flowers, when he accidentally sits on a bumblebee. Upon getting stung as a result, he runs wildly across the field, snorting and stamping. Mistaking Ferdinand for a mad and aggressive bull, the men rename him "Ferdinand the Fierce" and take him away to Madrid. All of Madrid, including many beautiful ladies, turn out to see the handsome matador fight "Ferdinand the Fierce". . ~ We appreciate your consideration of one of our books, art prints or novelty items.
