Sobre este artículo
New York: The Platt & Munk Co, 1930. Hardcover. Illustrations by Lois Lenski. 8vo. Red cloth with blue lettering and pictorial stamping. (24pp). Color frontispiece, color illustrations, pictorial endpapers. Very good. A bit edgeworn, with endpapers a tad worn and 2" expertly, archivally closed title page tear. A tight and fairly attractive early printing of this classic, with "Trademark" on front board, front flyleaf "Never Grow Old Series" ending in "Lil' Hannibal," etc.
Sinopsis
Everyone loves The Little Engine That Could, that classic tale of the determined little engine that, despite its size, triumphantly pulls a train full of toys to the waiting children on the other side of a mountain. The Little Engine that Could is an American fairytale that gained popularity and became a classic children’s book in 1930 when published by Platt & Munk under the pen name Watty Piper. An earlier version of the story was printed in the New York Tribune in 1906, and in the same year in a Sunday School publication Wellspring for Young People under the title “Thinking One Can.” The 1954 Platt & Munk version with illustrations by George and Doris Hauman is the best-known version of this book. -
