Fifteen

Descripción

William Morrow & Co. New York. 1956. (1962). 254 pages. First edition, 28th printing. The last title on the Books by Same Author page is Two Dog Biscuits (1961). Beverly Cleary's last published title referenced is Henry and the Clubhouse, published in 1962, six years after the first printing of Fifteen. So despite the title page and copyright page both stating 1956, this is a 1962 copy. That said, these early copies of Fifteen are scarce; especially in DJ and they are just about non-existent in collectible condition. Book is fine; tight clean and nice. Binding and hinges are strong and sound. Pages lay flat and tight in seemingly unread condition. Green boards are bright and clean with four sharp corners. Original DJ is bright and attractive with the original now-classic cover art. Inside flap is price-clipped. DJ shows light rubbing along edges and folds; otherwise fine. Before Judy Blume's Forever there was Beverly Cleary's Fifteen. This title is still in print thanks to Cleary's ability to write enduring characters that resonate with young people of different generations. Fifteen also serves as a snapshot of the innocent spirit of America through the eyes of a teenager in the 1950s, along with poodle dresses, convertibles, the tight sweater girls, "meeting boys", and soda shops. An exceptionally pristine copy of the classic in a just-about near fine DJ. N° de ref. del artículo 002441
