Title: Amazing book, horrible small format in this edition
Product review: Elsa Beskow's "Peter In Blueberry Land" is one of our favorite children's books. The illustrations are lovely and the story delights a wide range of ages. The only problem is that this particular format (a hardcover book measuring 6.7" wide x 5.2" tall) does not do justice to such a treasure. The pictures are not as enjoyable and, in many cases, the publishers of this edition have chosen to place text on top of the illustrations. It is definitely worthwhile seeking out the larger format hardcover book (12.5" wide x 9.5" tall) as you will want to keep it for future generations. It would be better, in my opinion, to buy a good second hand copy of the larger book than a new smaller version.
