Hardback. Zustand: Good. Katherine Paterson's remarkable Newbery Medal-winning classic about a painful sibling rivalry, and one sister's struggle to make her own way, is an honest and daring portrayal of adolescence and coming of age.  A strong choice for independent reading, both for summer reading and homeschooling, as well as in the classroom, Jacob Have I Loved has been lauded as a cornerstone young adult novel and was ranked among the all-time best children's novels in a survey published by School Library Journal. "Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated . . ." With her grandmother's taunt, Louise knew that she, like the biblical Esau, was the despised elder twin. Caroline, her selfish younger sister, was the one everyone loved. Growing up on a tiny Chesapeake Bay island, angry Louise reveals how Caroline has robbed her of everything: her hopes for schooling, her friends, her mother, even her name. While everyone pampers Caroline, Wheeze (her sister's name for her) begins to learn the ways of the watermen and the secrets of the island, especially of old Captain Wallace, who has mysteriously returned after fifty years. The war unexpectedly gives this independent girl a chance to fulfill her dream to work on the water alongside her father. But the dream does not satisfy the woman she is becoming. Alone and unsure, Louise begins to fight her way to a place for herself outside her sister's shadow. But in order to do that, she must first figure out who she is.…

Hardcover. Zustand: Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover. Maroon cloth spine and tan paper over boards. Blindstamped floral design on front cover. Gold lettering on the spine. Binding is good and tight, with some very minor toning to tan paper. The book is slightly shelf-cocked while at rest, but seems as though it would slide back to square if it were on a proper shelf. Pictorial DJ is attractive, but there are bumps and curls to the top edge and some wear to the hinges. On inside flap, both top and bottom corners are clipped, so there is no sign of the original price. There is NO MENTION of the Newbery Medal (which this book won in 1981), so this copy was clearly out and in circulation before it won the award. DJ now protected in mylar. No date on title page. Copyright page dated 1980. Stated First Edition with number line 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. 216 pages. Signed on the title page, "To Helen Foster with love, Katherine Paterson. 11/22/80." Overall, this copy has clearly been read and re-read, which is what the author would want, but not necessarily what a collector a Newbery firsts seeks out. Nevertheless, the early DJ without the Newbery sticker is as scarce as can be. Please email with questions or to request photos. If there is a photo or a paperback book beside this listing, please be aware that it's a STOCK PHOTO placed there by ABE, not a photo of the book that I have in front of me. I have tried to upload real photos, but I'm not sure if they've been accepted. Signed by Author(s).…
