Soft cover. Condizione: Very Good. 1st Edition. Flossie Teacake's Fur Coat Hunter Davies Illustrated by Laurence Hutchins Fontana Young Lions, 1984 (Fourth Impression, April 1987) Paperback, 144 pages, approx. 13 × 20 cm ISBN 0-00-672178-8 / 9780006721789 Condition: Very Good+ A bright, attractive copy of the classic 1984 Fontana Young Lions paperback edition. The yellow cover is clean and intact with only light shelf wear and the slightest rubbing to the edges and corners. The spine is firm and square with no creasing or splitting. All pages are present, clean and unmarked; there is no underlining, highlighting or writing. The paper shows the mild, even toning typical of a well-kept 1980s paperback, but remains supple and free of foxing or stains. Overall, a crisp, collectable example of this early paperback printing. This is the original Fontana Young Lions paperback, first issued in 1984 (following the 1982 Bodley Head hardback) and here in the fourth impression of April 1987. It retains the lively full-colour cover illustration of Bella's gloriously cluttered bedroom and the distinctive Fontana Young Lions lion-head logo. The interior black-and-white drawings by Laurence Hutchins are sharp and complete throughout. Synopsis Ten-year-old Flossie Teacake is thoroughly fed up with being the youngest, the shortest and the most overlooked member of the family. While her older sister Bella enjoys the glamorous freedom of being eighteen, Flossie is stuck with liver and onions at tea-time and a bedroom that is nothing like Bella's treasure-filled domain. Then Flossie discovers an old, dark fur coat hanging in Bella's room. The moment she buttons it up, something extraordinary happens: she is transformed into Floz — tall, elegant, eighteen years old, and suddenly able to do all the grown-up things she has only dreamed of. What follows is a series of hilarious, near-miss adventures involving pubs, Saturday jobs, driving lessons, school open days and discos, as Flossie tries to keep her double life a secret from her unsuspecting family. About the Author Hunter Davies (Edward Hunter Davies OBE) is one of Britain's best-known journalists and biographers. He wrote the only authorised biography of The Beatles and has produced more than forty books spanning biography, travel, football, and children's fiction. Flossie Teacake's Fur Coat (1982) launched a popular series that perfectly captures the mixture of envy, mischief and longing that characterises childhood. Davies's writing is warm, funny and observant, and the Flossie books have remained firm favourites with both children and adults who remember them from their own youth. About the Illustrator Laurence Hutchins provides the book's distinctive visual energy. His drawings combine energetic linework with a wonderful eye for clutter and character, perfectly matching the chaotic charm of the Teacake household and the comic possibilities of Flossie's transformations. The original colour cover and the many interior illustrations are a major part of the book's appeal. The 1984 Fontana Young Lions paperback is the definitive early mass-market edition that introduced Flossie to a wide readership. It features the classic yellow cover design that many readers remember, the original ISBN, and the full set of Hutchins illustrations. Later Red Fox reprints used entirely different covers, making this Young Lions printing particularly desirable for collectors of 1980s British children's paperbacks or for anyone seeking the edition they first read as a child. A thoroughly enjoyable, very lightly worn copy of a much-loved British children's classic. Ready to read or to display. Laurence Hutchins (illustratore).…

paperback. Condizione: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…
