      Gathering four timeless tales with pictures by Caldecott Honor artist Paul Galdone into one handsomely designed volume, Nursery Classics: A Galdone Treasury shows off the illustrator's wit, whimsy and masterful use of detail. In "The Three Little Pigs," the precocious porkers turn the tables on the leering wolf; the opening pages of "The Three Bears" show the main characters smiling knowingly at the reader, while the "Little Wee Bear" holds his teddy close. An introduction by Leonard S. Marcus offers a glimpse into Galdone's personal history and artistic style.

      This collection of four stories beloved by three-year-olds-- "The Three Little Pigs, The Three Bears, The Little Red Hen, " and "Cat Goes Fiddle-i-fee" --includes complete texts and illustrations as originally published. Galdone's simple images and expressive characters burst off the pages in these exuberant retellings of favorite folktales.
