Book Condition & Notes
Book includes a letter written by Annabel Farjeon to Klauss Flugge, author and founder of The Anderson Press, after he won the Eleanor Farjeon prize in 1999. The letter accompanied this first edition copy of Maria Lupin, which Annabel gave to Klauss. Eleanor Farjeon was Annabel Farjeon's aunt.

Then Maria's strange encounter with Samson, and her meeting with Ivan Abraham changed everything...
