GINGER'S ADVENTURES - A. J. Macgregor, W. Perring 1943
Ginger's Adventures is a story written in verse for children, with illustrations in colour, first published in 1940. This book is the fourth edition, issued in 1943, with revised verses by W. Perring. It is one of the Animal Rhymes Series 401, the first Ladybird Book series produced by Wills & Hepworth.
The book has grey paper-covered boards with a paste-down colour illustration on the front. It book shows its age, with general marks on the covers, wear with some loss to corners and spine ends, and three narrow internal page breaks, but the stitching is sound. There is a child's yellow crayon mark on the back and some small blue marks on the rear end papers; otherwise, the pages are clean and bright, particularly the charming illustrations. A former owner's name is written neatly on the front free end paper.
An exciting and amusing story for young children, and a book of possible interest to collectors.
