A magical old man has asked Kay to protect the Box of Delights, a Box with which he can travel through time. But Kay is in danger: Abner Brown will stop at nothing to get his hands on it.

This John Masefield novel is considered a classic of modern children's fiction.

Condition

This is a lovely copy. There are a few faults: there is slight fading to the spine, the wrapper has been neatly price-clipped and a neat previous owner's name to the ffep but otherwise the dustwrapper is sharp, the pages are clean and the binding is tight.
