Both simple and profound, Which Would You Rather Be is a modern classic.
This charming, kid-friendly picture book comes from a perfectly matched duo. Favorite books from the wildly creative William Steig include Sylvester and the Magic Pebble and Shrek! Harry Bliss's many beloved picture books include Steve Martin's Number One Is Walking, the Diary of... books, and Louise, The Adventures of a Chicken.
Bliss's warm, accessible art and Steig's winning way with words make this book a treasure for any childa celebration of humor and creativity.
William Steig's drawings appeared regularly in The New Yorker since 1930. He also wrote and illustrated books for children, most recently his memoir, When Everybody Wore a Hat. His other books include Sylvester and the Magic Pebble, winner of the Caldecott Medal; The Amazing Bone, a Caldecott Honor Book; and Abel's Island and Doctor De Soto, both Newbery Honor Books; Doctor De Soto Goes to Africa; Pete's A Pizza; and Zeke Pippin.
