Collector's Info: Flip and the Cows had two British printings but these are rarely seen here. I don't know if the other two books in the series were published in the UK as I have yet to come across any British editions. All three books in the series had multiple printings in the USA, both in hardback and paperback, and are very easy to find there. The 2 in 1 edition is also easy to find in the USA. None of the books are very easy to find outside of America.
