Now I have to wonder if the stories are as emotional. haha.Antmusichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02367691742635002918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-938617987945183593.post-82577597415060463332010-02-26T09:17:03.372-06:002010-02-26T09:17:03.372-06:00I love this book!

I've never seen this one. We have...Very cool. I've never seen this one. We have "Incidents in the Life of My Uncle Arly and Other Nonsense" (by Lear and illustrated by Maxey). That was an exciting find at the thrift store (almost as much of a dance as when I found THREE Jolly Roger Bradfield books)! I am all a-twitter just thinking about it... hmm... what time do those shops open... GAH! I am addicted!<br /><br />So, did Dale Maxey also illustrate the sequels "Preep in Paris" and "Preep and the Queen"?Antmusichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02367691742635002918noreply@blogger.com
