Daddy Long Legs (1959) by Jean Webster – Hodder and Stoughton Edition
Sold by Crappy Old Books
This charming 1959 Hodder and Stoughton edition of Daddy Long Legs brings Jean Webster’s beloved classic back to life in all its heartwarming, epistolary glory. Follow the spirited Jerusha “Judy” Abbott as she escapes the dreary life of an orphanage thanks to a mysterious benefactor—whom she affectionately dubs “Daddy-Long-Legs.” Through witty, endearing letters, Judy blossoms at college, discovering her voice, her independence, and perhaps even love.
This copy from Crappy Old Books has all the quirks you’d expect: yellowed pages, a spine that’s seen better days, and that unmistakable smell of literary nostalgia. It might not win any beauty contests, but like Judy herself, it’s full of character and charm. Perfect for lovers of vintage books and romantic optimism with a feminist streak.
Slightly battered, endlessly lovable—just how we like ’em.
Hardback with dust jacket in good condition.
