The seller had positive feedback, and I sent them one last email last Friday basically saying, "I just need you to tell me if you got the payment. If you communicated and it just hadn't gotten there, I would stop the money order and send another" if I had to. They responded that they "shipped the item yesterday", and it finally got here Tuesday - almost an entire month later. I will never do business with them again. (BTW Beckie, it was a "Blip" Comic book that had Matt on the cover and had an article about him, LOL).
I also got my 3 LIW books in the mail - they're gorgeous, I will try to take pics and post them here. I also won another book of letters between LIW & RWL, about when LIW was writing the books and RWL was advising her. That just came yesterday, so I didn't get much of a chance to look beyond the early passages, but they were of LIW explaining some things to RWL about her childhood.
There is also an intro from LIW, about why she omitted certain things from her book, such as strange murders that were occuring on the prairie - it sounded very creepy, and she said she didn't want that to be in a children's book. I believe it was right around the time she had written "On the Banks of Plum Creek".
"It is still best to be honest and truthful; to make the most of what we have; to be happy with simple pleasures and to be cheerful and have courage when things go wrong."
