Baby Love

I paid 8 dollars for standard shipping on this book. And while, I do not normally complain because I live in Alaska. and I realize things take longer to get here. It took almost a month! Also when I finally did get the book today, the package was open. the cardboard had been pushed loose or something. The pages of the book are slightly dirty on the top. The dust jacket is ripped on the bottom front and top back. The pages are bent on the inside! :( I paid for a brand new book. Plus shipping! And this is what I got. I do not wish to return this book because it took me so long to get and I love Jacqueline Wilson's books. And I also really want to read this book. But It would have been much better if the book arrived in new condition at a timely manner like I paid for. $25.00 for a book in this condition, is not something I would normally spend. No matter how badly I wanted it.
