A propos de cet article

One of four-time Caldecott-winner Leo Lionni's funniest titles, this is a First Edition/First Printing of this classic tale of mistaken identity. It's only flaw is some discoloration in the gutters, which seems to be a consistent problem with this title. An uncommon 1st printing and a wonderful addition to any collection of great contemporary children's books. N° de réf. du vendeur ABH398

Présentation de l'éditeur:

This egg-splosive tale of mistaken identity from Caldecott winner Leo Lionni is perfect for springtime reading and frog fans everywhere!

For three frogs, an ordinary day on Pebble Island becomes extraordinary when one of them discovers a beautiful white egg. Although they've never seen a chicken egg, they're sure that's what this is. So, when the egg hatches and out crawls a long, green, scaly, four-legged creature, they naturally call it . . . a chicken!

Leo Lionni's colorful animal fable—one of his simplest and funniest—features a hilarious case of mistaken identity that's an utter delight.
