Thank you for viewing this book.
Leo Lionni, the master of picture books such as "Swimmy" and "Frederick," has created this encyclopedia (natural history) of "imaginary plants" with the utmost in intellect and playfulness.
Product Condition
* There is some scuffing at the bottom of the spine of the dust jacket. (Please see photos.)
* However, the rest of the book (cover and book) is in excellent condition, with no scratches, stains, or discoloration, and the pages appear almost unopened.
* After obtaining this book, I stored it on a bookshelf (in a dark place) without reading it once.
The Appeal of This Book
* A magnificent intellectual play: This book is a fantastical and magnificent intellectual play, providing detailed explanations of "parallel plants" that do not exist in this world, including their scientific names, ecology, precise illustrations, and the history of their discovery, as if they were real.
