Description

"There has never been anything like this before, and there will never be anything like this again…[Thurber] takes such delight in the words. It's like it's written by somebody who wants to infect you with his love of words. There are poems hidden in the text. There are places where it wanders into rhyme and out again. There are all of the invented words. The story itself is nonsense in the finest possible way." —Neil Gaiman, interviewed in The Wall Street Journal

Description

On the opposite page of the dedication it says: " QUEENS HOUSE Larchmont, New York 10538 To aid catalogers and collectors, this title is printed in an edition limited to 80 copies." Republished 1976 by special arrangement. " The book cover and format seems similar to the red-and-gold of the Amereon Limited edition, but the spine shows the QH (Queens House) logo.
