Product Details

Vintage children's poetry paperback edition of Scary Things written by Norah Smaridge Goodreads. This collectible edition was published by American Education Publications (AEP) eBay by arrangement with Abingdon Press and carries a retro 75¢ original cover price. The book features a wonderfully stylized green cover with illustrations by Ruth Van Sciver eBay depicting a group of startled children, a dog, and a cat. It contains 17 charming, rhythmic poems addressing common childhood fears—like the dark, bad dreams, thunder, and vaccinations Goodreads—designed to comfort young readers. The back cover features the clean, retro AEP Paperbacks logo. While there is a minor tear along the top edge of the back cover, the overall binding is completely firm, and the graphics remain bright. Perfect piece of mid-century nostalgia for vintage children's book streams!
