| Delightful comic!
I wonder why somebody rated it only 5.
(I rated it 10.)
Nice Kelly stories, cute kitten and mouse story as well as Pogo and Albert.
Also nice Gollub animals story with bears, wolverine, etc
Nice Noonan Rover (dog) adventure.
The animal photos and text were OK too.
I still don't read the Uncle Wiggly stories tho and didn't read the cartoony dog story. |
|
| I suspect the 5 rating goes way back to the original version I posted years ago. The front cover had some significant damage; it was later replaced with a better copy. Thank you for the nice words about the scan; I love knowing people are still discovering books I shared years ago! |
