Description: LITTLE GOLDEN BOOKS launched in 1942 and revolutionized the world of children's books. They provided a high quality book at an affordable price in easily accessible outlets.As a Baby Boomer, I grew up with Little Golden Books and have such fond memories of them. They sparked in me a lifelong love of books and reading. I have collected them for decades.This book is from my personal collection.RETURN TO OZ: DOROTHY SAVES THE EMERALD CITYbased on the motion picture from Walt Disney Pictures, directed by Walter Murchbased on the screenplay by Walter Murch & Gill Dennisillustrations are drawings based on the movie artA very abbreviated version of this tale of adventure for young children.Walter Murch is best known for being a brilliant sound editor. Alas, this foray into directing was not well received. I think people expected a light-hearted Oz spin-off, but instead this was rather grim.This was bought used and is in just acceptabel condtion.Please see photos to get a sense of the condition as well as the text and pictures.Details about condition and edition:Note: covers are paper over cardboard / there are no dust jackets issued for these books.front cover: wear along edges; hard rubbing and paper surface creasing at outside corners; overall light dirt & wearinside front cover: writing in black ink in ownership block; Wee Care Day Care of Seattle address stampinside back cover: slight soiling; no writing or marksback cover: hard rubbing to outer corners; overall light dirt & wear; bar code sticker adheredspine: silver tape clean & shiny; hard rub top and bottom end, with 3/8-in tear to edge at back boardinterior pages: secure, none loose; light dirt & wear; 5/8-in top and 2 1/4-in tear bottom tears at gutter of title page; 2 1/4-in jagged tear with creasing final page at lower end of gutter and attached chip at lower edge of previous page; soft, short diagonal creasing outside corners of all pagesISBN: n/aLittle Golden Books series number: 103-55price on cover: nonepublication date / printing: copyright date of 1985publisher: Western Publishing Company / A Golden Book, based in Racine, WIprinted in: USAsize: 8 inches high by 6 3/4 inches wide weight: 3.6 ouncespage count: 24I am happy to combine shipping to save my buyers money. Books can easily be combined and pack well together. Media mail is a very affordable rate offered by the USPS. Cost is based solely on weight and does not vary with distance. If buying multiple books, please put them in your cart and then "request total from seller". I will then send you an invoice with an adjusted shipping cost. However, I have been told that if you are ordering from a phone, it may not be possible to request such a total. If that is your situation, please go ahead and pay the shipping as billed. Then, when I process your order, I will calculate the difference between shipping paid versus actual cost, and refund you any difference. Thanks for looking!
