Soft cover. Condición: New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: None as Issued. Facsimile Reprint of 1996 Original. BRAND NEW Copy. A fable of the continuing adventures of 9,000 elephants in Berkeley, California, in which the herd visits Peter B. Howard's Seredipity bookshop on University Avenue. A tale of the ensuing chaos left behind by the formidable herd in particular, and what states of affairs Serendipity Books is in for 51 weeks of the year (February week of ABAA fair and the numbers descending on the shop as exception). Story, written for the author's young son, stars Nancy Kosenka whose presence the shop cannot do without, Kate and her office, and Darlene trying to tidy shelves, and concludes with commentaries from Peter B. Howard (foul tempered; the Giants had lost another game) who had been absent during the rampage . Preceeding adventures (unpublished) in the series chronicled their visits to a Ben & Jerry's icecream parlour, The Cheese Boards, Andronico's grocery store, Toyo restaurant, and, Black Oak Books (to which this should be seen as a continuing saga).
