Very nice collection that includes *unabridged* copies of such stories as Mister Dog (aka Crispin's Crispian) by Margaret Wise Brown and Garth Williams, The Golden Egg Book by Brown and Leonard Weisgard, and four stories illustrated by Gustaf Tenggren. ?áUnfortunately it does not have Color Kittens... I'd still like to read a complete edition of that.

Great for bedtime or just shared reading. A good story about the good couple who bad things always happen to them and then they make friends with their enemies who have been bad to them and live happily ever after.
