Hi
When I was a boy, between 5 to 10 I think, my dad was in USA on a
business trip. When he came home he had bought me a childrens book. It
was a soft cover book with about 20 pages. About 20cm/8 inches high and
wide. The book was stapled and the shape was of Donalds head wearing his
hat looking forward at you from an angle. I mean that it was not a front
view as in the logo of the animated shorts films and not in profile.
This must have been in the middle of the 1960:s I think.
The only picture I remember is where one of the nephews look out from
behind a wheel-barrow. I seem to recall that it teached things like
behind, in front of and such things but I'm not sure.
This book sadly seems to have vanished through the years and I would
really like to get my hands on a copy of it.
Does anyone know what book I'm talking about and does it have a name so
I can search for it on ebay ?
I know that there was a Swedish version of the book published and I
would like that one too.

We just received copies of WDCS 689 and US 374 here, which is a darn
good indication that they have shipped. So rest easy on that score.

For those of you who enjoy looking for Disney comics in strange
places, the new issue of High School Musical: The Official Magazine
(June 2008) stats the serialization of an "all-new graphic novel". 16
pages appear in this issue, with interesting photorealistic art and
muted anime-style coloring.

This year's book is Gyro Gearloose with 5 stories,
Pied Piper of Duckburg by Barks and Rosa
Cave of the Winds by Barks
All Quacked up by Van Horn

Just Another Hangup by Van Horn
Barks covers front and back.
I will only charge my costs to ship.
As before it is best for a group in one area
