Book Overview

Featuring three classic fables, Richard Scarry's 1961 Little Golden Book is now available for a new generation!

The one and only Richard Scarry retells three beloved fables of Aesop in this must-have Little Golden Book, now back in print! Featuring The Country Mouse and the City Mouse, The Fox and the Crow, and The Dog and His Bone, this witty classic--previously only available in a story collection--is now available as a Little Golden Book.

Little Golden Books have been loved by children for over 75 years. When they were first published in 1942, high-quality books for children hadn't been available at a price most people could afford. Little Golden Books changed that! Priced at just 25 cents and sold where people shopped every day, they caused an instant sensation and were soon purchased by the hundreds of thousands. Created by such talented writers as Margaret Wise Brown (author of Goodnight Moon) and Richard Scarry, Little Golden Books have helped millions of children develop a lifelong love of reading. Today, Little Golden Books feature beloved classics such as The Poky Little Puppy and Scuffy the Tugboat, hot licenses, and new original stories--the classics of tomorrow, ready to be discovered between their sturdy cardboard covers and gold-foil spines.

About Patsy Scarry

Patricia M. Scarry (1924-1995) was a writer of children's books. She wrote many stories that were illustrated by her husband, Richard Scarry, including Good Night, Little Bear, The Bunny Book, and The Fishing Cat. J. P. Miller (1913-2001) illustrated many Golden Books from the 1940s through the 1970s, some written by Margaret Wise Brown and Edith Kunhardt. Before becoming a children's book illustrator, Miller had worked in the Walt Disney Studios' elite character modeling department, creating characters (such as the dwarf Dopey) for Disney's first feature film, Snow White. He later designed the character of the toy maker Geppetto for Pinocchio.
