AnonyMouse_480 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Can any one help ? I have been desperately looking for a book called Grandpas handkerchief. by Katheryn Clark not available to buy any more. Have checked all the usual amazon etc even EBAY !!. I am willing to buy this book and pay for all post and packaging or even loan for 4 weeks and pay p and p . I would be very grateful if anyone can help me out. Thanks Jackie Scarborough N Yorks
AnonyMouse_2732 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Sorry Jackie, I can't help you, but good luck! Will ask about for you Sue
AnonyMouse_1999 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 There is one in my local library but it's by Dorothy Clark and illustrated by Siobhan Dodds. THe ISBN 0750007842. Wonder if it is the same? surely there can't be two books of the same title both by Clark? Just a thought!
AnonyMouse_4544 Posted December 3, 2005 Posted December 3, 2005 Just found the Dorothy Clark version on line sorry
AnonyMouse_480 Posted December 3, 2005 Author Posted December 3, 2005 Marion have you found this available to buy ?I think I have got the first name wrong. Im looking for it for our reception teacher who has also been searching for it for ages. I was sure she said catherine clark but could possibly be dorothy. oops
Guest Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 We've got a big book copy in our setting bought about 2 years ago.
AnonyMouse_2157 Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 on amazon the book is buy Kathryn Clark but not available... have you tried Abe Books on the net? www.abebooks.co.uk You can find many books that are out of print there, although I did a quick search for the title of this one and it wasn't on it... sorry. Though the website is worth keeping in my favourites
Guest Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 Why not try your local School's Library Book Service they may have a copy you can borrow.

AnonyMouse_480 Posted December 5, 2005 Author Posted December 5, 2005 Hi Mimi, the first placed I tried was the local library, they had one copy in a literacy box in Northallerton, they were unable to get it because we are an independent school and dont subscribe to the library service!! They were happy to send a rep to talk to me about joining though!. Will try your link Marion thanks for taking time to look x
AnonyMouse_4544 Posted December 6, 2005 Posted December 6, 2005 My local library is always willing to order me books from the British Library if they dont have it on their books as an ordinary member of the library I find them quicker and more helpful than the school library service . Good Luck
