(Paper Dolls)

Take the Children.

King, Dorothy N.

Drexel Hill, PA: Bell Publishing, (c. 1945). Oblong octavo. Second edition. Illustrated throughout in color. Includes six die-cut color dolls, which play a key part in the interactive element of this unique movable book. The story centers upon six children from various European countries, all of whom are on their way home from a trip to the U.S. While aboard the S.S. Homeland, however, their name-tags become lost, and the children must be matched to their respective countries: this is accomplished by placing the dolls inside a slot in the proper map. Some shelfwear, else near fine in stiff pictorial wrappers, spiral-bound. This edition unrecorded in OCLC. Item #31998

Price: $185.00
