Written by Maryjane Hooper Tonn and illustrated by George Hinke, this 38-page book is printed on blue pages with a soft, linen-like feel, a touch we haven't seen described as a true linen book but one that gives every page its own character.
A charming gift for the Christmas book collector or anyone building a shelf of mid-century holiday favorites.
Ideals Publishing Company of Milwaukee grew out of Ideals magazine, first published at Christmas 1944 by Van B. Hooper as a collection of poems added to a company newsletter; the company became known for holiday poetry, artwork, and nostalgia, a spirit that carries into children's books like this one.
