MacDonald is wonderful. This edition? Well...

My kids aren't crazy about the cover art, to be honest. And I'm less than impressed with the printing quality. When I compare the Puffin Classic of The Princess and the Goblin with this, it's a bit disappointing. Still, I'd rather buy from the good people at Canon than some screwloose who is selling print on demand copies through Amazon. These seem petty things, to be sure. I mean, the content is great and my children love MacDonald's writing. But, that would be true in any copy. I hope Canon will continue putting out editions of MacDonald's work. And maybe, look to see what other editions have done well?
