The story of two little Mexican boys, Diego and Popo. Accompanied by their pet parrot, Polly, they seek the ancient tree-lizard, called the iguana, that lives in a pool deep in the green forest. 40 pp. with 8 beautiful full page color illustrations. These lovely tempera paintings have a quality of primitive art created by a very sophisticated artist. Laura Adams Armer won the Newbery Award for her 1931 book about Navajo life, Waterless Mountain.

Illustrated endpapers printed in green. $2.00 price on dust jacket flap. Book is tight and clean. Gutters and margins around endpapers a little darkened. Cover is slightly darkened at about 1/8" deep at the top and bottom edges. Overall, this is an amazingly beautiful copy.
