Description: Serendipity Books Published by Price/Stern/SloanWritten by Stephen Cosgrove, Illustrated by Robin James Serendipity Press was founded in 1974 by Stephen Cosgrove, the company merged with Price/Stern/Sloan in 1978. At this time, Cosgrove edited his already published titles and rereleased them with P/S/S. All books are 1978 or later, as they are all P/S/S. All books appear unread; bindings are firm and pages and covers are extremely crisp. From my research, the white-bordered covers typically indicate an earlier printing. The ISBNs for each book seem to have variable/incorrect publishing information when searched (e.g., date given may be for a later printing, and not the actual publication year of that edition). I have researched each book individually and provided the details of each to the best of my knowledge below: Nitter Pitter (1978) 1st thus; copyright 1978, no other printing information given on title or copyright pagesBook is in excellent condition; extremely minor wear to bound edge and corners from storage.
