Children’s Book, The Luck of Pokey Bloom, Weekly Reader

Weekly Reader Books - books bought at school and brought home to enjoy at your leisure and owned by you. The Luck of Pokey Bloom, published by Weekly Reader in 1975, is a thoughtful children’s story about a young girl who believes winning is all about luck. Along the way, she learns something more lasting — that getting along with people and doing the right thing matters more than winning any prize. Written by Ellen Conford and illustrated by Bernice Loewenstein, this book reflects the kind of quiet, real-life lessons Weekly Reader was known for. This would make a lovely addition to a vintage children’s book collection, a classroom library, or for anyone who remembers picking out Weekly Readers as a kid.

As New: The book is in the same immaculate condition as when it was published. This could be the description for a book that has been lost in a warehouse for years, never shelved, thumbed or even opened yet may still be some years old.

Fine: A Fine book approaches the condition of As New, but without being crisp. The book may have been opened and read, but there are no defects to the book, jacket or pages.

Very Good: Describes a book that shows some small signs of wear - but no tears - on either binding or paper. Any defects should be noted by the seller.

Good: Describes the average used book that has all pages or leaves present. Any defects should be noted by the seller.

Fair: Worn book that has complete text pages (including those with maps or plates) but may lack endpapers, half-title, etc. Binding, jacket (if any), etc., may also be worn. All defects should be noted.

Poor: Describes a book that is sufficiently worn. Any missing maps or plates should still be noted. This copy may be soiled, scuffed, stained or spotted and may have loose joints, hinges, pages, etc.

Binding Copy: describes a book in which the pages or leaves are perfect but the binding is very bad, loose, off, or nonexistent.

Reading Copy: A copy usually in poor to fair condition that includes all text presented in a legible fashion. The copy is fine to read but nothing more.
