Originally published in 1954, this 1958 reprint by the Children's Special Service Mission is a charming adventure story for young readers set against the backdrop of the Norfolk Broads. The author, Morgan Derham, was well-known for weaving moral and spiritual themes into lively tales of outdoor exploration and local wildlife protection. This particular copy features a beautiful, decorative 1st Prize bookplate from the "Estcourt Methodist Sunday School" dated 1962, adding a unique bit of provenance to the volume. The book is in fair vintage condition; the dust jacket shows wear, including chipping, small tears, and age-toning, while the interior pages exhibit heavy foxing (age spots) on the endpapers and edges, though the binding remains firm and the text is fully legible.
