PS
George has actually grown, not shrunk, in this much-larger edition. The art now fills the pages (there are borders in the original), and in some cases the edges of the illustrations have been cut to make them fit the new format. New jacket art aside, there is no reason for libraries with the original still intact to buy this edition.
