Illustrated by
Garth Williams.
Geared to gift-buyers, this "50th Anniversary Retrospective Edition" is an oversize book featuring large print. Bigger is not necessarily better, and Rosemary Wells's colorization of Garth Williams's artwork adds little to the book. Appended is an informative afterword by Peter F. Neumeyer.
