4.0 out of 5 stars It pays to look in the trash bin., May 1, 2006

By	Mylz (NJ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Donald and the... (Hardcover)

Donald may be small and may be a captive of his inactive, affluent household, but he knows how to take pleasure in the little things. What he finds in the bottom of his upper-crust garbage can fills him with hope and the promise of something he can look forward to each day.

This tiny treasure is for all hominids young and old, single and divorced, sane and insane, smokers and non-smokers, and for all others who refuse to be labeled.

Again, Peter Neumeyer and Edward Gorey prove that plain text and black & white illustrations can be every bit as delightful as the complex and the colorful.
