Reissue (1965, Pantheon)
(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Domenico Gnoli. Three stories leave readers wondering: What happened next? The first tells of Alberic, who spent his life searching without knowing what for. In the second a modern boy steps into a Renaissance painting. The third tells of two kings who briefly exchange kingdoms. Juster's smooth storytelling weaves together action and characterization. Gnoli's striking illustrations have a medieval feeling and are in perfect harmony.
