The Moffat Museum

The book is a first edition hardcover, ex-library copy with a worn dust jacket showing tears and edge wear. The binding remains intact, and the pages are clean, though the library sticker on the spine indicates its previous use. Despite the wear, it retains its charm and readability.

"The Moffat Museum" by Eleanor Estes, published by Harcourt Brace Jovanovich in 1983, is a delightful children's book that captures the imagination and adventures of the Moffat family. This first edition, with illustrations by the author herself, offers a unique glimpse into the world of Jane Moffat as she embarks on creating a family museum. The book is set in Cranbury, Connecticut, and provides a charming exploration of family life and creativity. Esteemed for her contribution to children's literature, Estes' storytelling is both engaging and timeless. This edition is particularly notable for collectors due to its first edition status. The book is ex-library, with some wear on the dust jacket, including tears and edge wear, but remains a cherished classic in the realm of children's fiction.
