children's circus of songs

it feels like weeks since I've seen the sun. october has been so cold, wet & dreary...I think some brightly colored silly illustration is called for:







copyright: 1973
publisher: magnus organ corp.
editor: roger bobley
graphic arts director: neal levin

well there now, I don't know about you but I feel a little better...

  1. Love these! I just found an old copy on Amazon and also another Magnus book illustrated by Neal Levin. I'm thinking....of course....embroidered quilt blocks!

    You really do find the best vintage children's books -- Thanks once again!

  3. Oh, it has been so grey here in Mississippi for what seems like eternity. There illustrations were perfect to brighten the day!

  4. These pages are so cheerful and fun. I especially like the student in sheep's clothing. It reminds me of the beginning of a school year, when as a teacher, I can only wonder what hidden qualities students have under their first-days-of-school behavior.
