Synopsis
First translation of the classic Italian children's book series featuring Timpa the red-spotted dog. In this first book, kind-hearted Signor Armando and the fun-loving Timpa make each other's acquaintance while out picking strawberries. Armando takes Timpa home with him and, when he steps out to run some errands, she makes friends with the whole household - teacup, refrigerator, armchair and kitchen chair included!, "For years Altan has made Italians of all ages think and dream."-RAI Books For decades, Timpa has been the best-loved children's character in Italy, spawning television programs, animated films, all manner of merchandising, and dozens of imitators. In this first book of the Timpa series, the kind-hearted Signor Armando and the fun-loving Timpa make each other's acquaintance while out picking strawberries. Altan's marvelously colored illustrations and the charming dialogues are bound to capture children's hearts.

    Wow. Well, this was a used item. I didn't alter it- this toy is decades old, and I got it at an antique store- it felt stuffed with sawdust or some sort of beans. I didn't alter it in any way. After accepting low bid due to your sob story-on something I paid MORE than I sold it for it's sad you'd choose to leave this comment. You could have sent it back for full refund & found another one that was better -after I gave you over half off. I'm sorry I took the offer. But enjoy the horse anyway.

    Shipping was great. Products were just as pictured. Packaging was wonderful. Value was perfect. They included sweet note, and a little gift. This purchase means soo much to me! I am so grateful for the sellers quick shipping, accepting my offer and just being overall so darn kind! When I was little I had the wind up big bird, and I used to take him everywhere with me, and then he burned in a house fire with everything. It was a really hard loss for me. Thanks for helping heal old wounds!

    I am so happy that you love your big bird! I have my childhood lovie and one of my favorite things to do on eBay is to reunite people with things from their childhoods that bring joy! Best wishes to you!

    The CD arrived in a reasonable amount of time, completely intact and as described in listing and photos. It was packed professionally. The seller was a pleasure to work with and sold for a fair price.
