My copy had no scary "handle with care" labels on it, though I note that the cover is attached with scotch tape. It's rather distressing to think of Wiseman's legacy disintegrating like that. I may have to acquire some sturdy copies of my own, if I can track them down, and do my bit for book preservation!

And I'm REALLY glad to learn I'm not the only one who, um, folds. Used to fold, I mean. Kate, I wish you would read along! I know what you mean about that compulsion. It's really something, isn't it.
