A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

Praise for The Three Little Pigs, The Little Red Hen, Three Little Kittens, and The Three Bears Folk Tale Classics

"It's a merry occasion when editions of classic folk tales illustrated by Galdone are reissued" —New York Times, ArtsBeat

"Mr. Galdone, a Hungarian-American writer and illustrator who died in 1986, had a knack for communicating humor through the eyes of his characters, whether he was drawing an overconfident wolf ogling a clever pig or a mouse in raptures at the scent of freshly baked cake." —Wall Street Journal

"The tales are just as inviting today as when they first appeared decades ago, and the reissues remain true to the essential elements while having a pleasing up-to-date look. With a cozy eight-by-eight inch trim size, the volumes will feel just right to tiny hands and still work well as read-alouds for group sharing." —School Library Journal

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The country mouse is visiting his friend in the big city to see how extravagant life can be. For the first time, he basks in endless amounts of sweetmeats, champagne, and the finest cheeses a mouse could ever want. But when life at His Majesty’s Court starts to show its darker sides, the country mouse quickly learns that the town’s riches aren’t worth losing the peace and tranquility of his own quiet home. In this classic tale of two of friends, Paul Galdone’s gorgeous illustrations and simple prose remind us where we find life’s true treasures.
