This beautiful softcover edition is in fine condition. The pages are clean, crisp, and unmarked, and the book remains tight, square, and well preserved. Robert Munsch originally trained as a priest and later earned a degree in anthropology. While studying and working in Canada, he began telling stories to children in schools. These oral narratives became the foundation of his published works, often refined through dozens of tellings before being committed to print. He received numerous honors, including appointment as an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1999. His influence on early literacy and read-aloud culture in Canada is profound, with educators widely crediting his work for helping children associate reading with joy and enthusiasm.
