Mike Mulligan and More

A Virginia Lee Burton Treasury

ebook
1 of 1 copy available
1 of 1 copy available

Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel plus three other classic picture book favorites, in one collection.

The four complete and unabridged picture books by Virginia Lee Burton in this volume are:

  • Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel
  • The Little House (a Caldecott Medal winner)
  • Katy and the Big Snow
  • Maybelle the Cable Car
  • Virginia Lee Burton wrote and illustrated stories that have been entertaining children, parents, and grandparents for more than sixty years. Many of her books—with themes that honor a simple way of life and celebrate heroes who endure through determination and by adapting to change—have become classic American tales.

    With an introduction by Barbara Elleman, author of Virginia Lee Burton: A Life in Art, this attractive collection commemorates four of Burton's most popular stories, each featured complete and unabridged. Their appeal today, as strong as when the books were first published, is a tribute to one of America's most innovative illustrators, designers, and writers of stories for children.
