Printing Details

First edition thus (50th anniversary edition). Hardback, bound in green cloth with gilt titling and design to spine and upper board. 28.5 × 22cm, unpaginated.

Signed to the title page by John Burningham.

The Ugly-Ducklingesque tale of Borka, the sixth gosling born to Mr and Mrs Plumpster, who wears a grey jumper her mother knits because she has no feathers, and can’t fly. Bullied and left behind by her migrating fellows, she stows away on a trawler, makes friends and ends up in Kew Gardens where the geese don’t mind strangeness.

Borka was the first book to be written and illustrated by John Burningham.
