Description:
Boston/Toronto/London: Little, Brown and Company, 1989. This children's book is quite extraordinary. Out of the rich storytelling tradition of the Maritime Indians steps the giant Glooskap who first creates human beings and then travels among them....from the Bay of Fundy to the shores of New England. Here are six unusual tales, full of wit and wisdom, that aptly capture the rich mystical world of this mythic giant as he pits his powers and magic against the forces of nature and evil that threaten all he has created. The text is wonderfully illustrated with the most impressive wood engravings of Michael McCurdy. Orange boards show edge-sunning to extreme top and bottom edge...a common occurance for this type of board and color. A lovely clean book with no ownership markings. The illustrated dust jacket shows a short closed tear to upper left of front panel. It remains price-intact and bright.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good.

This is a novel about childhood, which is about far more than childhood, for it touches upon the whole human spirit." Well illustrated with full-page drawings by Harold Town.

Description:
New York: The Viking Press, 1981. The author's first novel. The mysteries of life are not easily understood by Plantagenet, the swiftest, the skinniest, and certainly the most charming pig in all of thirteenth century France. His size nonwithstanding, Plantagenet, as the unlikely hero of this light hearted and beautifully illustrated tale, also emerges as a pig of truly noble proportions. Michael Foreman's illustrations - at once elegant and whimsical - capture perfectly the wit and liveliness of a book that can be read both as an allegory about conservation and as a work of completely original - and most definitely adult-humor. A generous list of illustrations provided. Wonderful full-page illustrations and tail pieces to a good number of chapters. Illustrated endpapers. Colourful pictorial full wrap-around dust jacket...Price intact. A very nice copy.. First Edition, First Printing. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Fine.

New York: Reynal & Hitchcock, 1945. Translated from the Chinese by Evan King. Peking, a thousand years old and more is the setting of this modern novel of China by one of its best-known writers. "Rickshaw Boy" is Chinese in its plot, characters, and atmosphere. The translation of Evan King, an American who lived in China for many years and knows it people and their language, is a remarkable achievement. It is appropriate that Rickshaw Boy should be illustrated by Cyrus LeRoy Baldridge. No other American illustrator has experienced so intimate and varied association with the Far East. Art and book lovers are already familiar with the wonderful illustrations of Hajii Baba of Ispahan, etc. For a year Baldridge lived in Peking sketching the life of its colorful streets - the life described in this book. Baldridge art begins as you open the book .... illustrated two-page scenic spread endpapers.... a scenic sketch title page, chapter head sketches and many other sketches throughout the book.
