Seller's Description:
The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly. All pages and cover are intact (including the dust cover, if applicable). Spine may show signs of wear. Pages may include limited notes and highlighting. May NOT include discs, access code or other supplemental materials.
Although this is supposed to be a book for children, I think adults will enjoy it also. I used it in my foreign language class to practice some verbs we were studying in the subjunctive mode. The students enjoyed the story very much. The illustrations add to the African flair of the story. Very well done.
