Original 1945 first edition.
The classic folktale of a humble couple who are granted three wishes, only to discover that wishes must be chosen wisely. Charming mid-century illustrations in full color and half-tone bring warmth and personality to this beloved story.
This book is in very good vintage condition overall, with all pages securely attached and the binding intact. There is a “Methodist Church School” stamp on the copyright page, and the back inside cover shows residue from a removed sticker. The first page has a small tear, approximately 1” long. All other pages are crisp, clean, and like new, with no other marks or damage.
