Seller's Description:
Very Good. Hardcover. 12mo. Published by Harper and Brothers, New York. 1958. 43 pgs. Illustrated. First Edition/First Printing. Clipped DJ has light shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities (top price is present $2.00, but the rear panel of the DJ has a chip present). Bound in illustrated paper covered boards with titles present to the front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Recognizing the intrinsic literary merit of much of children's writing, Ruth Krauss listened to their ideas, poems, and stories and wrote them down with a professional's touch. Maurice Sendak's drawings highlight the whimsy and logic of these writings, and also stand on their own as picture-poems. The result is seventeen very funny, poignant, insightful, exuberant pieces of literature that bring out all the best of childhood imaginings.; 7.25 X 0.5 X 10.25 inches; 43 pages.
