Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Extremely disappointed.....this was a 50th Anniversary Edition and yet it did not include the beautiful 4-color illustrations of each shell that highlighted each section and became a book I cherished 50 years ago. I wanted to present a copy to each of 3 granddaughters........BUT NOT THIS EDITION. I AM RETURNING THEM. And will look for a used copy of the original edition. THE FACT THAT THE COLOR ILLUSTRATIONS WERE INTEGRAL TO THE CHRM OF THIS LITTLE BOOKLET......their illumination from this important Anniversary Edition should have been mentioned.
