About This Item
US: Flying Eye Books, 2015. reprint. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Clean, unmarked copy with only minor wear to dust jacket. In this unheralded civil rights allegory composed in the heat of the early 60s (originally published in 1963), two little dogs frolic and dream of adventures beyond their wildest imaginations, from jungles of the Congo with towering ebony elephants to the whitewashed, frigid arctic where the icy white polar bears roam. Dahlov Ipcar once again pairs her timeless illustrations with fresh original verse that celebrates the unity, wonder, and beauty of the living, breathing natural world around us. Record # 350867
Reviews
On Jul 23 2022, a reader said:
I got a used copy of this as a gift from a friend. I treasure it. I enjoyed sharing it with my pre-school students and with my own children. The drawings are fantastic and printed in an old-fashioned style. They're really creative. I was afraid given the title the book would have a vaguely hidden message about racial equality, but it just reads like a playful, imaginative lark between two friends where they dip into beautiful scenery awake and in dreams. It's a treat for the eyes, lots of 'scope for the imagination' as Anne might say. Nice for kids learning to read and learning to speak.
