Notes:
- 1st ed., trade hardcover format
- Publication date from Kirkus Reviews 1980-03-01 (posted 2012 with later cover image and ISBN; moderately positive; see the novel record).
- Price from review by Barbara Karlin LA Times 1980-03-09 pK10 (much the earliest item found in newspapers; three other reviews April, May, June).
- Cover image from Amazon.com 2018-08-01 as "Harpercollins Childrens Books; 1st edition (March 1, 1980)", this ISBN. The label affixed states "HarperCrest", the Harper & Row imprint for library editions.
- Cover artist is interior illustrator Jacobi, as expected for a 1st ed., certainly from comparison with a later ed. that retains the Jacobi interior art only (viewed as "Look inside" at Amazon.com 2018-08-01).
- Library of Congress (LCCN, below) as (c)1980 lists this ISBN first of two beside "0060219181 (lib. bdg.)" (library binding). The record was created in 1979.
- WorldCat (OCLC, below) as (c)1980 lists this ISBN first of three beside 0060219181 and 0064403645. If all three ISBN appear in the book, the record must report an ed./printing later than the Harper Trophy, J364, probably 1991.
