About This Item
New York: Blue Sky Press, 2008. Fine in very nearly fine dust jacket.. Signed second printing of this story about a boy who has everything, and his resistance to any suggestion that maybe, MAYBE he has TOO MANY TOYS. David Shannon is a master of many styles: delightfully frenetic illustrations that reflect the occasionally chaotic aspects of childhood, charming mid-century aesthetics that add bounce to his books, more realistic art that emphasizes the unusual occurrences of his stories. Before entering the world of picture books, his pictures graced the editorial pages of periodicals including ROLLING STONE, NEWSWEEK, and THE NEW YORK TIMES. His children's books have earned numerous accolades, including a Caldecott Honor. 11'' x 8.5''. Original color pictorial boards. Original unclipped ($16.99) dust jacket. Illustrated in color. [32] pages. Signed by Shannon to title page. Jacket with a tiny spot of soil. Sharp.
