This heavy paper cover child's book is a scarce unstated first edition, first printing. It has a copyright date of 1945 with no publisher information - this first printing was self-published.

Little Squeegy Bug by Bill Martin is the tale of a little firefly, which was re-written by the author in 2001 with an updated and more politically correct but shorter story line (ie: removing mentions of the gun in the bumblebee's tail). The illustrations in this edition were done by Bernard Martin, the author's brother, and they are filled with old fashioned charm. The book measures 5-1/2 by 8-3/8 inches and is unpaginated (28 pages).

The condition of the book is near mint. It's obviously never been read, with all pages and saddle stitch binding crisp and tight. No thumb wear, creases, stains, or writing. The only issue is a faint smudge of old label glue on the cover in the shape of the top flap of an envelope (first photo, look closely near Squeegy's left side).
