You could buy this book in mint condition, but they were very expensive. I bought a rag/tag version for $20,00. Gave it to my husband and he said what he's always said and what the other reviewers said. "It was my first 'novel' and I Ioved reading it over and over again." A winner! A book that took him back to his early school years, and, got his nose out of his iPhone, and the world situation, for a while. This particular book makes him reflect on many things about his life that I had never heard before. If you have anyone who's mentioned the green turtle. Buy it for them. There is a series of "Green Turtle Mysteries" by Ellery Queen, Jr. Good to read to children, grandchildren, also. Linda Kesselman
