🔍 Key Details
-
Adult cover series: Bloomsbury introduced these in 1998, aimed at adults who wanted to read the books without the cartoonish children’s artwork.
-
Second print: Means it’s still part of the first edition run, but not the very first impression. Collectors value first impressions most highly, but second prints are still considered early and collectible.
-
Copyright page check: Should read “First published in Great Britain in 1997” with a number line ending in “2” (instead of “1”).
