Honey Bear - Maginel Wright Barney

FULL COLOR reissue of the 1923 classic about a bear and a baby. My mother used to read it to me at bedtime long before I knew one letter of the alphabet from another... Honey Bear's main attraction was Dixie Willson's rollicking, rolling rhythm... the Willson beat made me think writing must be not only magical but fun... I resolved then and there, lying illiterate on a little pillow in a tiny bed, to be a writer. In homage to Dixie Willson, I've slipped a phrase or two from Honey Bear into every book I've written. TOM WOLFE, author of The Right Stuff
