Illustrated by Mairi Hedderwick

London: Macmillan London Ltd., 1976.
First edition, first printing.

Evocative whole-scene illustrations from watercolors wonderfully portrayed by Mairi Hedderwick to enhance this story of a young girl and her dog who has nightmares after becoming frightened of creepy monsters that may be living in wells and bogs.

Set in the Scottish Highlands, this is a summertime picture-story of a little girl and her family, including her grandmother, known as "Herself", living on a Highland farm, and was written to accompany the winter picture-tale, HERSELF AND JANET REACHFAR.

A well preserved collectible.

A very faint hint of shelf-edge wear, else fine cream boards with wrap-around color cover illustration, (sturdy sewn binding); in a very nearly fine dust jacket that mimics the cover art; original L2.50 net printed price still intact to the front inner flap seen through the printed Macmillan raised price sticker of L3.95 net.

A warm tale, with beautiful illustrations in the original British First edition.

Square quarto.
