A candle in the mist: a story for girls | 
This poor little book is in a very sad, #wrecked state, but I‘d never get rid of it, because it was one my mom had been looking for since she was a little girl. (We‘d been able to find the other books in the series, but not this one.) A #BetsyTacy friend found this one for $4. 😊 #crimesagainstcovers
Erinsuereads Good find!!!! Do the pages stay in it? I have one that looks alright on the outside but every time I open it the spine cracks a little more and I‘m waiting for pages to fly everywhere. I bought a new “reader copy” just to be safe 6y
rubyslippersreads @ErinSueG The inside is in pretty good shape, luckily, since the only other copy I see for sale is $300! 😱 6y
Erinsuereads Holy moly!!!!! That‘s insane!! You win for rarest book! 6y

Gina I looked too. I could only find 3 copies from 3 different sites. All $300 and one was an ex library book. So awsome you have it. It is not damaged it is loved. It was written in the 50s and must have touch many ♡♡♡s. Enjoy your treasure 6y
LeahBergen It‘s a treasure 💕 6y
rubyslippersreads @LeahBergen It is. Although my mom loved beautiful books, in this case she said, “As long as the words are there.” 😊 6y
