Well, OK, this just proves what folks in the UK have always suspected: Americans can't read. It also proves that Americans have the most phenomenal luck (at times). I was looking for a copy of the PRESSED FAIRY BOOK. It's been reprinted in Canada, but it's not currently available in the U.S., and used book prices are astronomical. A friend pointed out the AMAZON.CO.UK site to me, and I thought I'd look for the Jones/Froud book here. AND I FOUND IT! Or so I thought. I noticed that the cover seemed more violet than tan, but I assumed that it was just a cosmetic difference between the UK and American editions. So I ordered it. Of course, what arrived a week later was Lady Cottington's Pressed Fairy JOURNAL. Journal? My first thought was that the order must have gotton muddled. Of course, all along, I was muddled. I'd ordered the Journal. After pouting a bit, which didn't seem to have ANY effect on the Journal, I looked at it. It is wonderful. It has the charm, whimsy, darkly-wicked humor of the book; it also has the grace and beauty of a lovingly-crafted journal. If only ALL of our mistakes could turn out so delightfully.
