Sobre este item
From dust jacket flap: "Barry Yougrau's moon-touched sorcerer's apprentice tale is at once hilarious and poignant, nostalgic and timeless - a truly magical tour de force."
Book - Fine condition. Clean and tight.
Dust Jacket - Very Good - would be Fine except front flap is price clipped. There is also a fold that appears to be a production flaw. The Dust Jacket is interesting - mostly a satin-type finish, but with areas that look like they were taped, but really, it's just a glossy finish in those areas! 215 pages

Sinopse
Barry Yourgrau's adult works include HAUNTED TRAVELLER, WEARING DAD'S HEAD, and A MAN JUMPS OUT OF AN AIRPLANE. A performer too, he has appeared on MTV and NPR. Of MY CURIOUS UNCLE DUDLEY, his first book for young readers, he says, "I've always been influenced by children's books — so I decided to write one myself. I remembered the exotic visits, when I was young, by my uncles from far away. And my own visits, as an uncle myself, to my nephew and niece. So I'm part Dudley, you see, and part Duncan." Tony Auth's irreverent, incisive, and delightful Pulitzer Prizewinning political cartoons have appeared in the PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER and other newspapers around the world since 1971. When he first read Barry Yourgrau's MY CURIOUS UNCLE DUDLEY, he jumped at the chance to illustrate it. "The eccentricity of Uncle Dudley, the cast of wacky characters, and the humane irreverence of the story really attracted me," he says. "I love all the magical mistakes and mess-ups, especially Barry's tender, amused look at the tolerance of children for the grownups in their world."
