Product Description
Awarded the Caldecott Medal for the most distinguished picture book of 1971
Awarded the Caldecott Medal for the most distinguished picture book of 1971
"One fine day a fox traveled through the great forest. When he reached the other side he was very thirsty." The jaunty red fox stole milk from an old farm woman, lost his tail under the annoyed woman's knife, and spent the day bargaining to get it back. This humorous retelling of a favorite Armenian folktale is a story small children will follow and "read along" with ease.
About the Author
Nonny Hogrogian is a two-time winner of the Caldecott Medal. She was awarded the medal in 1966 for Always Room for One More and in 1972 for One Fine Day, the first book she both wrote and illustrated.
She started her career as a book designer, but soon began illustrating her own books. Since winning her first Caldecott Medal she has created an imposing list of outstanding books. Among them are Apples, a wordless picture book; Paz; About Wise Men and Simpletons, Twelve Tales from Grimm; Vasilisa the Beautiful; and Sir Ribbeck of Ribbeck of Havelland. The last two were A.L.A. Notable Books.
She is married to the poet David Kherdian. They live in an old farmhouse in Lyme Center, New Hampshire. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.
