These two vintage novels are great for reading and adding to your book collection. When reading, handle them gently due to their age and the wear they've experienced.

If you notice any loose parts, it's best to consult a professional book restorer. Since 'Stairway to a Secret' is an ex - library copy, it might have some library - specific markings, but that doesn't affect the story inside. Enjoy exploring the worlds these books have to offer!
