About This Item
New York, NY: Artist & Writers Guild Books/Golden Books, Western Publishing, 1993. First Edition, First Printing . Hardcover. Collectible - Fine/Near Fine. Anita Lobel (Author-Illustrator). Text/BRAND NEW. Illustrated boards/Fine. DJ/NF w/the smallest of nips to upper spine. Pierrot, sporting a white face and loose white garments, has been a stock character of pantomime and Commedia dell'Arte since the late 17th-century. Originally a robust country bumpkin, he was transformed by French mime to an ever-hopeful, but always disappointed, suitor of Columbine --- but, no so in this book. We follow Pierrot as he gathers delicious fruits and vegetables in a beautiful garden, guided by the letters of the alphabet, and Pierrette, his lady love is indeed very pleased to share a picnic fresh from the garden. Lovely way to learn the alphabet and understand the bounty on the table at the same time. Fine copy.
