MARGARET WISE BROWN'S WONDERFUL STORYBOOK

by Margaret Wise Brown & illustrated by J.P. Miller

Pub Date: April 15th, 1948
ISBN: 0307157776
Publisher: Simon & Schuster

A Big Golden Book collection of Margaret Wise Brown's poems and stories, forty two of them, and good stories they are, bearing rereading even if you've had them before. Animals, airplanes, trains, birds, fishes, imaginative stories, and fanciful ones balanced by down to earth might be true stories. Some have made place for themselves as junior classics already,-The Terrible Tigerrr, Fifteen Bathtubs, The Fish With The Deep Sea Smile. One could wish that the acknowledgments were more particular, but perhaps that is being captious with a book which will afford extensive pleasure, and is a good buy.
