    The book was exactly as described and arrived quickly. The only problem is a recurring one with this seller and other similar sellers - the book is poorly packaged in a plastic envelope and gets heavily bumped in shipping. I would like to see the books wrapped before shipment, but I understand this can't be done for cost reason. Luckily it isn't an expensive book, and I will continue to purchase basic books from this seller. A+++++

    Book arrived quickly and is pretty close to "Very Good" description. Value priced and I'm glad I made the purchase as this is an excellent read. However, the book was mailed loose inside an over-sized plastic bag without any protection. Wrapped in a bubble wrap jacket would be a big help. A book can take a beating in USPS transit without some buffer. I can't tell if the bumps and dings were original or occurred in transit. I'd prefer to pay for shipping than have it sent with no protection.

  • Within The Fairy Castle

    This is a beautiful book! I would check out the original book about Colleen Moore’s dollhouse from my local library over and over again when I was a kid. Now I own both books and this newer version has more photos and info.

  • Within the Fairy Castle

    Beautiful close-up, detailed glossy photos of the fairy castle display in Chicago. If you like intricate crafted miniatures made with authentic materials, you’ll love the history of how this magical castle came to be.
