Magic for Marigold
Price: $50.00
Hard Cover. Toronto: McClelland and Stewart, [circa 1940]. Very Good.
Later printing [1929], lacking frontispiece illustration. Publisher's tan boards, lettered in black. Very good, with a tiny spot of soiling to bottom right of front board, lightly bumped corners, a touch of creasing to spine ends, previous owner's inscription to front free endpaper, pencil marks to bottom edge of text block, mild soiling to fore edges of some pages, with a few pages lightly stuck together. Overall, a solid copy. In Magic for Marigold, the young protagonist has a powerful imagination, and spends much of her time in nature with her imaginary friend, Sylvia. The book traces Marigold's development into a young adult, as she experiences various growing pains, adventures, and her first romance. Montgomery published four linked stories in 1925, and they were adapted and expanded into Magic for Marigold. The story is set in Prince Edward Island, Montgomery's place of birth and the setting of her famed Anne of Green Gables series. Item #LMM006
