First published in 1951, The Wonderful Farm is Caldecott Medal-winner Maurice Sendak's very first appearance as an illustrator on the Harper list. This beloved literary classic is back in print after many years in time for its 75th anniversary.
There is a farm in France that is "wonderful" in the most magical sense of the word, for on that farm all the animals talk, and the strangest things have a way of happening to the two mischievous little girls in the family--in spite of the efforts of their rather stern parents.
First published in 1951, Marcel Aymé's charming stories and Maurice Sendak's incomparable black-and-white drawings went on to become a beloved literary classic. The drawings featured in The Wonderful Farm were among Sendak's first published illustrations, and they introduced the world to an artist who went on to change the face of children's books.
HarperCollins is proud to present this new edition of The Wonderful Farm that has been printed in close collaboration with the Maurice Sendak Foundation to ensure that Maurice Sendak's original artwork has been reproduced to the highest standards.
