What's neat about this books is that each story is illustrated by a different artist - so I've picked my favorite 3.

how wonderful! The illustrations are gorgeous. That stack seems neverending! It always surprises me when a book is found with illustrations by Andy Warhol. I have a cookbook illustrated by him. We forget that he had to start somewhere.
Wow! These illustrations are amazing.
Wow, I love the saturated blues and greens.
These are great illustrations! Would you mind if I used the little Miss Muffett at all - I would like to put it on a bag - if you're happy about it I'll send you a little something as a thank you x
I Love these books. Seeing this post reminds me of the whole collection I passed on a few years back for $10. I kick myself a lot over that decision. Oh I love your blog, I just found it!
I don't do applique, but these illustrations look like they would work!!
All of these illustrations are wonderful - simple and creative!
Delightful!
How could anyone not love mid-century illustration?! It's just so cute :)
