From the Inside Flap:
"Harry's parents and friends think he's crazy because he acts out the rich fantasies of his 10-year-old imagination. And when his eccentric American uncle dies and leaves Harry a parrot named Madison (Mad), they're convinced of it. A believable, satisfying animal fantasy, with memorable characterizations and playful humor...a sprightly read-aloud."--"Publishers Weekly
About the Author:
Dick King-Smith was born and raised in Gloucestershire, England, surrounded by pet animals. After twenty years as a farmer, he turned to teaching and then to writing children's books. Dick wrote mostly about animals: farmyard fantasy, as he likes to call it, often about pigs, his special favorites. He enjoyed writing for children, meeting the children who read his books, and knowing that they get enjoyment from what he does. Among his well-loved books are Babe: The Gallant Pig, which was made into a major motion picture and was nominated for an Academy Award.

Boards sharp and clean, title gilt perfect. Text block clean, with light spotting to edges. The pages are on the whole crisp and unblemished. Feels gently read.

Some minor creasing to the top of the rear panel. Small amount of crimping to the head of spine. Priced clipped. In the archival fitted cover the jacket looks very presentable.
