Kelly (Maybedog) (maybedog) | 62 comments This book The Adventures of Pippi Longstocking is combined with the book above, Pippi Longstocking. They are not different editions of the same book. The former is a anthology of three of the Pippi books whereas the latter is only the one book. I believe these are supposed to be separate, right? But the author has too many works to display so I can't even get in there and see what's up. Can you help me? Thanks.

Arenda | 26448 comments It looks like you managed to separate this book: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

You are right that these should not be combined.

But the author has too many works to display so I can't even get in there and see what's up.
I think you mean on the combine page?

The best way to go is:
go to the All editions page: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...

The number at the end of that URL (2056462) is the work-ID.

On the combine page, you can filter for work-id or for keyword.
Filter by the work-ID that you found in the All editions URL.

It will give you this result: https://www.goodreads.com/book/combin...

(And I noticed that there are more editions with Librarian Notes that those editions contain all three books, so those should also be separated. I don't know if you want to do those too. Otherwise I can separate them, and combine all 3-book-editions.)

Arenda | 26448 comments I've separated and recombined all 3-book editions that I could identify based on the title or a Librarian Note: https://www.goodreads.com/work/editio...
and added them back to the series as book #1-3.
