new book to my collection
by johansrk
Today I received a book, I have been wanting for a looooong time. I book so beautifully illustrated by Georgina Hargreaves, and a book so magical, that I wish every person had one. I is the 1983, first edition "Folk of the Faraway tree - deluxe edition".
It is in perfect, almost new condition. The only thing is a small inscription from the person who gave the book away for Christmas.
It says "Kindly / All my love - Daddy xMas '83 "
EDIT
And now you can see the Big version of the book, because I have scanned it. Go to the cover section, and click the cover for MEGA size

What are the stories about??
-------------------------------
The stories are about the "Faraway Tree" which grows deep inside "The Enchanted Wood". In the tree lives a lot of magical folk, which over time become good friends with the three children who live nearby, Jo, Bessie, and Fanny.
The tree is a special tree because it is enormous. In fact it is so high that you cannot see the top of it, when you stand on the ground. Its branches reach up above the clouds in the sky. If you climb to the top of the tree, you will get to a ladder that leads you to different "lands" above the clouds. Each day a new land arrives, like a train arrives at a station, and then the "lands" move on.
The lands that the children visit can be nice, fun as well as dreadful, dangerous. Therefore, you should be very careful, when entering a land. You just might get into trouble.
