Was this a separate publication of The Body?

Ari, my good man, you have me at a distinct disadvantage. I'd be very much obliged for any and all additional information regarding the above that you can provide!!! "The Body" happens to be one of my favorite King stories as well as, the movie version "Stand by Me".
I'm chiming in with, Barlow. Is this a previously released, separate edition, or one to be announced shortly? Or is it "custom" ordered art? What's the "411"!!!! Obviously, I am woefully uninformed!!
Hey Bill, I went to Ebay and typed it in. It would seem that there were classroom paperback reader editions done in the UK! I,m going to have to get one, The Body is also one of my favorite stories!Quote:

Thanks Bill it is appreciated! I don't know if there have been multiple printings but, connections that could run down some firsts would be awesome!Quote:

Here's one, though no picture to be sure. A little over thirty bucks once you add in postage to the States: http://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Body-Fall-from-Innocence-Level-5-Penguin-Readers-By-Stephen-King-Robin-/360654848110?pt=Non_Fiction&hash=item53f8b4406e
That's great Bill, keep me posted!Quote:

I think I heard that these Penguin Reader's editions are heavily abridged, though. Still, I suppose they're cool because of the illustrations.
I spent quite a bit of time looking for first printings of these a few years ago (there is also a version of The Breathing Method illustrated by the same artist) but gave up in the end.
There seem to have been many printings, my The Body is a tenth print and The Breathing Method is a sixth, and I've had these for 7-8 years!
Both pop up on ebay occasionally.

Hey, many thanks guys!!! I'm watching both auctions and will probably pick up one just for the "novelty" factor and because I so enjoy that short story by King!!!
Good looking out, fella's!!!! Hopefully, I can return the favor one day!!!
Thanks to our friends across the pond for all the information!
