Su questo libro

Recensione:

Arthur Robins' witty and robust illustrations bring Macavity up to date, delighting a new generation of readers. (Guardian)

And it is (Arthur Robins') illustrations that make Eliot's superb poetry accessible for younger children. Ideal for reading aloud, the meaning is clear even where the vocabulary is sophisticated. The colourful and cartoon-like drawings have plenty of detail and added humour (Scotsman)

The illustrations capture all the wickedness, it is lovely to be reminded of such a great poem (Angels and Urchins)

Descrizione del libro:
