Summary
Fun and timeless two classic children's tales
This adorable book contains two stories from classic American writer and artist Peter Newell. Newell's illustrations appeared in the illustrated works of Lewis Carroll and Mark Twain. Aside from illustrating for others, he was a great writer in his own right.
Two popular books Newell wrote were The Slant Book (which was printed with the images slanted at 15 degrees) and The Rocket Book. The Slant Book recounts a fun story about a boy who is riding in his out-of-control go-cart as it rolls downhill. During his journey, he encounters a variety of people and situations that will leave both you and your children laughing.
The Rocket Book is a story about the travels of a toy rocket that was set off by a mischievous little boy. Newell brilliantly guides the listener through a journey between each of the floors of the building in which the rocket was launched.
Some stories are timeless. The Slant Book and The Rocket Book are timeless stories that will enthrall and engage readers of all ages.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
