(3) PS Illustrated by Clement Hurd. Retrospective by Leonard S. Marcus. This edition is notable for children's literature historian Marcus's twenty-page afterword. His reflections include biographical information about the creators and their editor (the legendary Ursula Nordstrom); insight into the trio's collaboration; discussion of the book's legacy; and reproductions of correspondence, photos, and illustrations from early editions. Scholars and interested (grown-up) readers will find this a rich look at a cultural touchstone.
