The Secret World of Og by Pierre Berton.
This vintage children's book is the 30th Anniversary Edition. Wonderful version with both black & white and colour illustrations and it is somewhat rare.
Back reads in part:
"A Canadian classic ... The book tells how four children - Penny, the leader; Pamela, her common-sense sister; Peter, whose life's ambition is to become a garbageman; and Patsy, who collects frogs in her pockets - set out to search for their baby brother, Paul, better knows as "The Pollywog," who has vanished mysteriously from their playhouse. Accompanied by their fearless pets, the children descend through a secret trap-door in the playhouse into a strange underground world of mushrooms, whose green inhabitants know only one word: "OG!" This is a story of Let's Pretend, for readers of all ages, but especially those aged five to nine."
159 pages.
Good to fair condition. The binding is sound, no writing except for a price written in pencil inside the cover. But the cover is a little dog-eared and there are a few bent pages.
