FIRST EDITION. 'Precise, elegant and lyrical' (The Photobook). One of the best children's photobooks from the period of high modernism -- a time during which 'publishers gave photographers a freer rein than they might have enjoyed if illustrating adult books, where their audience had much more rigid expectations' (The Photobook). Auer, p.182; The Photobook, vol.I, p.102 and reproducing the cover on the dustjacket.
