The cover is different than the one shown. Despite the fact that my mother thought I should, I never read this. Even so, it's kind of beat up from being thrown into and lost for several years in a paper bag with a bunch of other things at the back of a closet. There is a hard crease on the back cover, a couple of dog-eared pages toward the middle of the book, and a "wave" to the entire book that may or may not straighten out with some time in a bookshelf.
