Wonderment: The Lisbeth Zwerger Collection - Tapa dura

"It s a fresh breath into timeless text...The physical book is a work of art...This is one to savor, to celebrate, and to remember."-Design of the Picture Book, Carter Higgins"

"Whether she is depicting Little Hobbin in his crib, conversing with the moon, or Kipling s Djinn creating a hump, Zwerger portrays key moments in imaginative ways. While the intended audience for these stories spans a wide range, libraries needing to replace the originals will find this a worthy purchase." Booklist, Kay Weisman"

This marvelous anthology offers a selection of some of the most outstanding literature and illustrations: The Little Hobbin by Theodor Storm; The Nutcracker by ETA Hoffman; The Gift of the Magi by O’Henry; Canterville Ghost by Oscar Wilde; Deliverers of Their Country by Edith Nesbitt; and How the Camel Got His Hump by Rudyard Kipling. Lisbeth Zwerger’s edition of The Wizard of Oz was named a New York Times Best Illustrated Children’s Book of the Year and the Washington Post Book World called it “the loveliest edition imaginable.”
