Condizione: FINE. First printing. A collection of never before published "American Fairy Tales" written by this Pulitzer Prize winning poet for his children. Introduction by Sandburg scholar George Hendrick who selected - out the dozens more that have never been published - ten that "most reflect Sandburg's incomparable storytel…ling magic." Illustrated by Caldecott Honor winner Paul O Zelinsky - "Using colored pencils on plastivellum drafting film, he mirrors and embellishes Sandburg's fantastical creations with enormous delicacy and imagination, providing dozens of delicious variations on the rutabaga theme (one becomes a coiled blue cat with downward-descending tail, others have fey creatures nestled in their greens), limning characters with characteristic energy, artfully manipulating the very text. His art for the last tale, where the poet makes a cameo appearance [as the Old Slicker], is especially lovely and ingenious."(Kirkus) Lqrge format. 94 pp. Fine in fine dust jacket.
