Description
Signed by Teale on the title page. An interesting volume, a mass paperback that's apparently scarce, with no other copies seemingly available and only four copies in libraries according to OCLC (only two in the US). A ""Ladder Edition"": As the front wrap declares, ""This special edition is for readers for whom English is a second language. It can be read by anyone who has learned 2,000 words of English."" It's an adaptation of Teale's Dune Boy, his memoir remembering his boyhood in the Sandhill Country, and is illustrative of a special effort to connect young or new readers of English to nature. A handsome little book, and undoubtedly extremely rare signed by Teale, whose signatures are uncommon in the first place. Near fine with toning to pages--great condition for a mass market paperback.
