They hardly sell at all.

I've written a dozen of them now, 'The Blue Pouncet Box,' 'The Three-tailed Griffin,' 'The Tree without any Branches,' but you won't want to be bothered with the names of them.

'The Griffin' went into two editions, but it was only because the pictures were rather sentimental.

I've often said to myself, 'If a thing doesn't sell in these days it must be good,' but I've not really convinced myself.

I'd like them to have sold.
