What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Catkin is a cat so small that he can sit on the palm of a man's hand. He lives with the Wise Woman at the top of a hill, at the foot of which live a farmer, his wife, and their only child, Carrie. Seeing some danger coming towards the little girl, the Wise Woman gives Catkin to her as a guardian - and the two love each other dearly. But one day, while Carrie sleeps in the bushes and Catkin chases a butterfly, the Little People come out from their home inside the hill and take the child, leaving a changeling in her place. Catkin has to go into the land of the Little People and bring her back. But the Lord and Lady of the Little People have grown very fond of Carrie. Catkin has to engage in a battle of wits against them, answering three tricky riddles and risking his own freedom in the process.
