The Rocket Book.
—
First edition, first printing—a lovely copy. This delightful and classic story follows Fritz, the janitor’s son, who ignites a rocket in the basement. The rocket ascends through a die-cut hole on each page, soaring through 22 floors of his apartment building. Typically found well-worn and rubbed, this is one of the nicest copies of this book that we have handled. Grolier, 100 Children’s Books.
