The signed bookplate is a lovely touch and makes this feel like a real collector's item. My daughter read the whole thing in two days, and it's the 1890s Saltee Islands setting that hooked her.

The bookplate was signed right on the front page, which looks great on the shelf. Only wish it had been tucked inside a protective sleeve, since the corner got a little bent in transit. Still, the 1890s island setting pulled me in faster than I expected.
