Still a solid copy. Beautifully illustrated by the author. ; 26.24 X 21.59 X 1.24 centimeters; 68 pages .
Sinopsis
They Were Strong and Good is a book by Robert Lawson that won the Caldecott Medal for excellence in American children's literature in 1941. It tells the story of Lawson's family: where they came from, how they met, what they did, where they lived. "None of them," Lawson says in the preface, speaking of his ancestors, "were great or famous, but they were strong and good."
