The novels are bound in a beautiful cloth covered hardcover binding in a dust wrapper that replicates the first edition DJ from 1944. As one would expect from a new book, the pages are all present and are clean and crisp, and the hinges and bindings are tight.

From the front DJ flap: “Back home in Texas, Terry Blake was the daring leader of her crowd in school and at the lake. But then came the accident and although she wasn’t seriously hurt, something had happened to her nerve. She was ashamed to admit it, but she was “scary”. And then, of all times, the Blakes had to move from sunny Dallas to Granite Harbor (Marquette, Michigan), on the shores of Lake Superior! How could a girl who was used to swimming in the warm water of White Rock Lake ever learn to endure the icy chill of Superior? How could a newcomer from the South keep up with a crowd of young people who had spent most of their lives on skis, snowshoes, and ice-skates? At first Terry hates the perpetual snow and ice and being continually called upon to do things she had never done before. But next door lives a family that has so much fun she cannot stay out of it. At the end of the year of good times and learning new skills, Terry finds that the north country does “get into your blood.” And best of all, she is no longer afraid to do things. A book brim full of winter fun, with a special appeal for older girls. Ages 10-16.” Dorothy Maywood Bird Biography from rear DJ flap (1889 – 1989): “It’s no mystery why Dorothy Maywood Bird so successfully gets “the north country down on paper.” Born in Crystal Falls in 1899, she lived in Marquette while her father was pastor of the First Methodist Church. For the last 50 years, Middle Island Point has been her summer residence. To keep in touch with the youthful interests of young adult literature, Mrs. Bird drew on the experiences of her eight grandchildren. Her other books (other than Granite Harbor), Mystery at Laughing Water and The Black Opal, are also set in the Upper Peninsula. Mrs. Bird graduated from Albion College and The University of Michigan. Prior to marrying Lansing-based attorney John Wendell Bird of Norway, Michigan, she was a children’s librarian at the Detroit Public Library. later, Mrs. Bird was Dean of Women and Librarian for Lansing Business University. Locally, Mrs. Bird helped to found Marquette’s Beautification Committee and actively participated in the Marquette County Historical Society, Marquette Study Club, and Citizens to Save Lake Superior. She served as Chairman of AAUW’s Creative Writer’s Group and twice as keynote speaker for the Upper Peninsula Writers Conference. Nationally, Mrs. Bird’s distinguished career was acknowledged by her inclusion in Who’s Who of American Women. Media Mail shipping included in the purchase price. Shipping outside the U.S.A. at cost. If you have any questions about this book please ask. Thanks. David White
