i read this book as a child, as it was part of the third-grade curriculum when i was there, say, thirteen years ago. one story in particular, the title of which i cannot remember, struck me so especially that i decided last week to look for this anthology of charming children's stories. the art, i can clearly recall, is rather psychedelic & avant-garde, definitely made to appeal to a baby-boom generation of peter max-ed educators & parents. it's really a shame that this book is out of print, because it would do well to shape young minds with timeless themes & topics, of which they will become more familiar as they grow up, & returning to this unique collection of stories again & again, they will understand how important it is, indeed, to keep certain books, certain 'special happenings' in our lives & families.
