This is a retired ex-library copy with visible wear. Please review the detailed condition points and photos before purchasing:
• Spine/Binding: The exterior clear laminate overlay on the spine is peeling and split near the joints. The internal stitching remains intact, and the pages are securely bound, but the spine shows heavy cosmetic wear.
• Ex-Library Markings: Features standard library treatments including a barcode on the front cover, "VM" spine label, stamps on the top page edges, and handwritten library cataloging notes on the interior dedication page.
• Pages: The interior pages are clean
and free of heavy scribbling or major tears, though light handling wear and minor edge smudges are present from historical library use.
• Covers: Light scuffing and edge wear underneath the protective plastic
overlay.
Plot Summary: After Isabelle accidentally breaks the family cookie jar, she and her brother Jerome spin wild, imaginative tall tales—blaming everything from a cookie-stealing dragon to a horned monster—to avoid telling their mother the truth. It is a playful story about honesty and childhood imagination.
