I'm starting to read this edition (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...) of No Holly For Miss Quinn, but it has no blurb.If someone would be able to cut and paste into the Goodreads edition above, the back of my copy says:
Miss Quinn liked being left to her own devices - especially at Christmas.
So it was with some foreboding that she agreed to look after her brother's three young children while his wife was in hospital.
However, Miss Quinn soon finds her stern sense of duty undermined by the preparations for Christmas, the infectious enthusiasm of the children and the unexpected arrival of an old flame.
The serenity of "Miss Read's" books, strengthened by a sturdy sense of reality, defies imitation.
Hello! Could I please have an image added to this title? She's a Rebel. Here it is: http://sweetheartsromancebooks.com/im...
Hi again. With this one Textastrophe, could the image from the e-book edition please be added? It's the same. Many thanks.
Could I please have another title amended? I Can Share!. Image and details here: http://www.scholastic.com/teachers/bo.... Page count is 14. Thanks
Fixed 1912 and 1913. Sorry for the delay Suzanne, for some reason I didn't receive any notification of new posts, not even the little red (2)
Thanks Brenda! It wasn't important but I knew your notifications must have been playing up as you are always super quick ;))
I have another one, The Australian Housewives Manual, image is here: http://publishing.nla.gov.au/book/the...Thanks!
Could I have an image added to this great little book The ABC Book of Dinosaurs. Image here:http://www.harpercollins.com.au/97807...
Thanks :)
Something For Nothing by Andy Muir
No it wasn't there Michael :) And it's set here in Newcastle! I was surprised reading the blurb!

It's a revamp of The Princess Bitchface Syndrome.
Many thanks!
The Princess Bitchface Syndrome 2.0
I'm wondering if I should combine the two Suzanne - they seem to be the same especially with the same cover. But it has the added author name - Elly - at the 2.0 after the title. If it's just a revamp, perhaps it should be... I'm really not sure!

I think they're updating the content (social media, smart phones etc), thus the 2.0. It's a few years old so I'd say it should be as it's own... it's a title change? Possibly?!
Brenda, I think you may be right, from the blurb: 'In this fully revised and expanded edition, leading adolescent psychologist Dr Michael Carr-Gregg and researcher Elly Robinson also discuss the single most prolific and influential factor of our times – technology.'
I might just leave them separated Suzanne... if another librarian picks it up and combines them, so be it :)
Hey I just read Lord of the Flies and the copy I read was really old. This is its IBSN: 0571063667 which already has a cover, but its a hard cover so the image of this IBSN is without the sleeve cover. So I added another addition and was just wondering if you could combine the editions or add the number of pages to the edition I added. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3...Pages: 248
Thanks!
Is it possible to have 2 editions of a book with the same ISBN and different cover art?I am reading Lord of the Flies. When I type in the ISBN of the book I am reading (9780571191475), I get this edition: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/5... however the edition I'm reading has this cover: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and it is that cover shown for that ISBN on Book Depository: https://www.bookdepository.com/Lord-o...
I don't suppose it really matters, but it seems odd. Is it possible to change the cover for the ISBN 9780571191475 to the reddish-orange cover (the one without the words "50th Anniversary edition" on the cover)?
Yes - what usually happens is the book covers are updated so the new book has the same ISBN but a different cover. In this case it's called Alternate cover edition for ISBN **** as it isn't possible to create another book using the same ISBN.
And no we can't "change" the cover - but I can create the alternate edition for you if you'd like?

Can someone please add the Penguin paperback cover of The Rose Notes by Andrea Mayes. Published 2005. Much nicer than the blank cover. ISBN 0 14 300317 8It is an orange and blue cover with a cottage in the left hand corner roses and a black and white snapshot of a couple kissing on the cover. A very interesting cover.
Here's another weird one where my copy isn't the same as the one in the system.I'm reading The Idea of Perfection, ISBN: 9781922182470. My edition has 432 pages, with this cover: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1... and this blurb:
***************
He was biting his bottom lip in his teeth, hard. She knew, without knowing, that he had grown the moustache to hide behind. It was just what she would have done if she had been born a man.
Patchwork expert Harley Savage has come to Karakarook, population 1374, to establish its heritage museum. Engineer Douglas Cheeseman has come to tear down its beloved heritage bridge. Crippled by self-doubt, weighed down by failed relationships, these awkward individuals might actually be perfect for each other. But will they realise it? Warm, hilarious and affecting, The Idea of Perfection won the Orange Prize and announced Kate Grenville as a major international novelist.
*************
Would someone be able to create an alternate cover edition, please?
Here you go Kathryn :) I put it down as paperback, but let me know if that's wrong won't you.
