About the Story
A family on a hike in the woods finds a row of daffodils in a neat row. They look further and find the remains of a chimney. Someone used to live here. The girl digs in the dirt and finds a marble and a china doll’s arm. Children once lived here. Then they think about what their lives were like – and what happened to them.

Condition
See photo above. In very good condition for age with some handling/storage. Inside the front cover find a last name but no other markings. Stored in and shipped from clean, smoke-free home.
Shipping
Generally sent the same day payment arrives. Unless you request otherwise, I will wrap the book in plastic wrap to help protect it from the elements, tightly sandwich it between pieces of cardboard, then wrap in brown paper to send via Media Mail with Delivery Confirmation tracking. See the shipping page for the cost to send a one-pound Media Mail package. Insurance is an additional cost as described. I am delighted to combine postage and insurance costs if you purchase more than one item. The second item may travel for free or just a few cents more — so it’s worth taking a look at my other items before you complete your order.
