PS
A boy details, in disarmingly breathless and specific text, the animals he loves: "little ones, big ones; plain ones, strange ones." Ipcar's original lithographic plates were lost; this new edition is the product of restorers who "have painstakingly...re-mastered each brush stroke." The book retains its 1960s look, and today's animal lovers will also be enchanted.
