NO Maxfield Parrish Illustrations!,
This review is from: Mother Goose in Prose (Hardcover)
Publisher's description is incredibly misleading. This edition (ISBN: 1603128336) does NOT contain the original Maxfield Parrish illustrations. In fact, it contains NO llustrations. The reason there is no cover image on the product page is because there is no cover to speak of: just a plain blue cloth cover. Beyond disappointing!
