Item description from seller

As new condition dark blue textured faux leather boards with silver front cover and spine lettering contained within an as new condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; About the Author, Mickle Maher; About the Illustrator, Spiro Dousias; and About the Music and It's Creator, Michael Smith. Profusely illustrated with color drawings and color illustrated front and rear endpapers. Also includes an as new condition Musical CD contained within a plastic CD case affixed to the inner front board. Signed and inscribed by the illustrator, Spiro Dousias, with blue ink on the full title page along with an original Spiro Dousias hand-drawn cartoon illustration. "Master Stitchum and the Moon is neither a book of poetry nor a book about God or gods, exactly - though it contains poems, song lyrics, and heaaven and angels, and a suspiciously all-powerful, cigar-smoking character. the story starts when the world was 'so young that the mountains only came up to a person's chin and snowflakes came in just twenty-three shapes.' Master Stitchum, hero of the book's title, is a tailor who 'never did any tailoring.' He's too busy correcting faults: 'as the sun would set (with a few too many pinkish hues, he thought) he'd encounter a clump of dirt, sitting the wrong way on a hill.' His brother Pitchum is 'the town slop shoveler,' but there's no slop, and theri little sister Helga - well, she spits. The world is so young there isn't any moon, and people stumble around at night, bumping into things. It's up to Stitchum, Pitchum, and Helga to change the course of history, thanks to author Maher, who lets his imagination run free .the man can certainly write. Spiiro Dousias's illustrations are appropriately skewed, light-handed, and childlike. They add life to an already abundantly lively work." - Liz Rosenberg, The Boston Globe. - from the rear outer dust jacket. "Inside this book is a CD containing 3 songs that accompany the story of Master Stitchyum and the Moon. COmposed and performed by the world renouned singer/songwriter Michael Smith." - from the rear outer dust jacket. "Michael Smith's wistful music adds to the electrifying air of creativity." - Chicago Reader.…

Description de la boutique

Vero Beach Books is an antiquarian bookseller with a constantly updated inventory of rare out-of-print books, signed books, children's books, plus a large inventory of ephemeral items such as major U.S. city newspapers going back 100 years and more, golden and silver age fine condition comic books (soon to be added), and many other ephemeral items as well as much more recent popular volumes. We have been in business for 25 years, originally known as Emerson Books (named after one of our owner's favorite authors, to wit, Ralph Waldo Emerson) located back then in Westport, Connecticut. That said, we are here to serve you, to offer you fine quality items that are conservatively described so that you will always be pleasantly surprised and delighted with your purchase. Twenty-five years in the bookselling business has borne out our stellar service oriented reputation; the only difference is that now we are located in the almost always sunny and warm climate of Vero Beach, Florida. Again, we are here to serve you and, as was the case when we were previously known on ABEBooks.com as Emerson Books, we will continue to offer our very popular 100% free search service for those hard to find books rare and out of print books. Oftentimes we are also able to obtain these rare finds at very good discounts to our customers' so it is always worth contacting us in such cases!
