Description
The first edition of this magnificent, graphically original book from Franois was first published in New York in 1958A book about a little boy with a huge imagination. The marvel and enchantment of thisstory is its revelation of the mind as itbelongs only to the world of children. Existing without the prejudices of their parents and without the firm belief that the world must be a certain way, children live in a fluid zone between "reality" and imagination, where everything is possible.
