Abstract
See the original, which was published by Pantheon in 1985. This edition adds three stories, uses a new illustration for the dust-jacket and cover, offers an introduction not by Bruno Bettelheim but by Lionni himself, and uses a different publisher. Lionni's new introduction is most engaging. Lionni did not start creating children's books until he was fifty years old! The three new stories include Matthew's Dream (133), which seems strongly aubobiographical; Six Crows (143) about reconciliation; and An Extraordinary Egg (153), an excellent story which shows what might happen when a frog finds an alligator egg.
