About This Item
New York: Harper & Brothers (1958). Pictorial cloth in pictorial dust jacket price-clipped, this is the reinforced library binding but is NOT ex-library. A bright, fresh copy. Inspired by tales told by children, Krauss has re-worked their stories but is true to the hyperbole and directness of a child's method of story-telling. Sendak's drawings, of course, are perfect for the text.. First Edition. Pictorial Cover. Fine/Near Fine. Illus. by Maurice Sendak. 4to.
