Sobre este artículo
Chicago: The Book House for Children. Fine with no dust jacket. 1954. First Edition Thus. Thirtieth Printing. Hard Cover. Publisher's full red cloth, gilt lettering on spine and cover, color paste-on on cover, illustrated endpapers. 190, (2) pp. Copiously illustrated in full color and B&W by Maud and Miska Petersham. Includes a colorful map of Holland and Index. Tales Told in Holland' consists chiefly of short stories with a few translations from the greatest Dutch poets, and a few old Dutch Nursery Rhymes, as naive and nonsensical as our English rhymes, and contrasting interestingly with the far more sophisticated rhymes of the French. There is a least one story from each of the eleven Dutch Provinces which form the kingdom o the Netherlands; fanciful folk tales from the little known heath and fen country of Groningen, Drente, Overyssel and Gelderland where the fold must make up for the barrenness of their land by the fruitfulness of their fancy; realistic tales from the freen and fertile provinces of Friesland, Utrecht, North Holland, South Hollan and Zeeland, with their typical Dutch scenery.. The volume is in perfect, pristine condition, unmarked, tight, square and clean. FINE.. Color and B&W Illustrations. 4to 11" - 13" tall. 190, (2) pp .
