About This Item
San Diego, New York, London: Harcourt Brace, 1986. First edition. Near fine in near fine dust jacket.. Inscribed first printing of this collection of classic sleepy-time songs, including "Hush, Little Baby," "Bye Baby Bunting," and "Rock-A-Bye Baby." Jane Yolen is a literary all-rounder. From Nebula-winning SF short stories to historical fiction to cookbooks to poetry, Yolen has found success and accolades. Picture books are no exception: among her numerous works in the genre are two Caldecott Medal winners, beautiful collaborations with some of the most pre-eminent illustrators, and beloved bedtime story staples. In 2021, at age 83, she published her 400th book, and showed no signs of slowing down - "[m]y eye is on 500!" she gleefully reported, discussing her ongoing projects (Scalzi). 8.5'' x 11''. Original red cloth boards. Original unclipped ($13.95) color pictorial dust jacket. Illustrated in color. [32] pages. Inscribed by Yolen, Mikolaycak, and Stemple to front flyleaf, dated 1986. Jacket with a touch of edgewear, a bit of sunning to spine. Binding with a couple tiny bumps to tail edge, tiny spot of soil to rear board. Sharp and bright.
