Winter (winter9) | 85 comments ISBN 8205132240 (ISBN13: 9788205132245)

Correct page number are 249 if you count the last picture or else it's 248.

It's a hardcover so you might want to include that too :)

David Raz (davidraz) | 13119 comments Oddly, worldcat has a two page counts, 187 for the 1987 edition and 186 for the 1994 edition. Could your edition be different in some way? Maybe it is a large print edition? They should have a separate ISBN but they often don't.


Winter (winter9) | 85 comments I don't know. That's weird. Honestly I have ever only seen this version in for our Norwegian bookckub. I don't think there is a large print version, I believe world cat is just wrong. I have collected a lot of these book club books and never seen two versions of them for any of them and my parents got them as abonnents and they were just the same as the ones I have collected from used book shops.


Winter (winter9) | 85 comments Okay so this is super weird, but it might be a later edition? It still has the same picture though.

The ISBN for the hardback I have is : 82-525-1161-9

Does that explain anything?

David Raz (davidraz) | 13119 comments You gave a different ISBN above, now I am confused. Are you reporting page count for ISBN 8205132240 or 82-525-1161-9?

Ellen (ellenengen) | 33 comments 82-525-1161-9 is a 1983-edition. Illustrated, so that explains the page count (248 pages).


Winter (winter9) | 85 comments Ah that's true!! Nice, thank you! Do I need to add that one seperately then?

Ellen (ellenengen) | 33 comments You don't have to, of course, but if you would like to have the exact same book on your shelf, go ahead.

David Raz (davidraz) | 13119 comments Good thing that I asked. I thought that was obvious, but in the future, please report the ISBN of the book in your hands, not some other edition.
I reverted my edit done based on your information.
