What is Many Moons (Hbj Contemporary Classic) about?
<p><P>Princess Lenore is ill from eating too many raspberry tarts. She believes that possessing the moon is the only thing that will cure her. Despite a command from the King, neither the Lord High Chamberlain nor the Royal Wizard nor the Royal Mathematician can get the moon for her. Only when the clever Court Jester consults the Princess herself is the problem solved - with characteristic Thurber wit. <P>James Thurber (1894-1961) was one of America's most celebrated humorists. <P>Marc Simont lives in Connecticut.</p><h3>Publishers Weekly</h3><p>Buoyant watercolors, full of poignancy and subtle merriment, more than do justice to Thurber's beloved tale of a princess who asks for the moon, and the wise jester who presents her with it, said PW. Ages 4-8. (Sept.)</p>
