The books in this section are usually hardcover and in decent shape, though we'll sometimes offer hard-to-find books in lesser condition at a reduced price. Though we often put images of the book with their original dust jackets, the copies here won't always (or even often) have them.  If you need to see photos of the actual book or have questions about the condition, please call or email.

"Early in the nineteenth century there lived in Germany a young man named Wilhelm Hauff. Younger than Keats when he died, he left as his legacy to European Children dozens of strange and wonderful stories. ...Dwarf Long-Nose remains his most famous tale. It is a story as well-known to children in Germanic countries as "Snow White" or "Sleeping Beauty"; one that for a hundred and thirty years they have begged to have told to them over and over at bedtime. ..."
