Opis

This was the first of four Caldecott Honor Books by Lionni, first published in 1960. The bold graphics and beautiful cutout paper collages of colorful birds, foliage, and the clever green inch worm are as fresh as ever, and should appeal to a whole new audience in this accessible board book format. Full color.

Recenzje

The lovely colors, the sharp definition of cutouts against white space, the rhythm of the composition, and the simplicity of the whole make a handsome and appropriate book to give pleasure to little children and their elders. The Horn Book Magazine
