In good condition commensurate with age. Others listed - have a browse. Woolworths Mighty Midget Books - helping children through the dark days of the Blitz. This was very scary for children. Many parents did what they could to make the whole experience into an adventure, with a little help from Woolworth's and tiny little Mighty Midget books. The 32-page books measured just 3¾ inches by 2½ inches (10 x 7cm) and were sold at the artificially low price of threepence. The cover price was subsidised by a full page advertisement on the back. There were titles for both boys and girls. The scripts aimed to be uplifting, with positive endings and brave children playing an important part in many of the stories. The goal was to distract the reader from the drone of aircraft overhead. The small books fitted neatly into pockets so that they could be kept to hand in case the sirens sounded in the dead of night.
