Sobre este artículo
This is an unread First US Edition of I Saw Esau: The Schoolchild's Pocket Book, written by the English folklore experts Iona and Peter Opie. It was originally published in 1947. In 1992, it was re-published, this time full of color illustrations by the great American illustrator Maurice Sendak, best known for Where the Wild Things Are, and his many cartoons for the New Yorker.
Collected in this invaluable book are the wit and wisdom of generations of schoolchildren—more than one 170 rhymes ranging from insults and riddles to tongue twisters, jeers and jump-rope rhymes. With Iona Opie's introduction and detailed notes and Maurice Sendak's remarkable pictures—vignettes, sequences, and full-page paintings both wickedly funny and comically sad—this book offers knowledge and entertainment to readers of all ages.
This copy's dust jacket, though unclipped, is a little battered. The book itself is perfect. The spine has not been cracked; there is no indication that anyone ever opened it.

Maurice Sendak has created texts and illustrations for more than seventy books, which have sold millions of copies around the world.
