Phenomenal collection of encouraging tales
The tales and illustrations of Peter and his companions are so heartwarming. They are a treasure trove of life lessons, morality and childhood experiences. This collection not only includes the works of Keats but behind the story, illustrations and pictures. It's an absolute MUST for the Keats collector or fans at heart of dear, sweet Peter and his doggy Willie!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
