From Maurice Sendak, the Caldecott Medal-winning genius who created Where the Wild Things Are, comes Nutshell Library, which will enchant readers with four classic titles.

Containing pocket-size versions of perennial favorites Alligators All Around, Chicken Soup with Rice, One Was Johnny, and Pierre, this pint-size library is perfect for small hands.

Learn the alphabet with silly alligators, drink chicken soup with rice every month, count visitors with a boy named Johnny, and survive a scare with a boy who doesn't care. Endless adventures await in these lyrical stories that children, and their grown-up readers, will love reading and sharing over and over again.

A wonderful stocking stuffer or baby shower gift, Maurice Sendak's Nutshell Library will evoke powerful memories for many, and the rhymes and stories continue to speak to new generations of little ones.

And if you prefer your Nutshell Library books on their own and not quite so tiny, each is also available in a board book edition.

About Maurice Sendak

Maurice Sendak (1928–2012) was an illustrator, author and stage designer. Born in Brooklyn to immigrants from Poland, he was largely self-taught as an artist. He illustrated more than 150 books beyond his own. Where the Wild Things Are won the Caldecott Medal in 1964, and In the Night Kitchen was named a Caldecott Honor Book in 1971. The Nutshell Library gathers four miniature books, among them Chicken Soup with Rice and Pierre. He received the Hans Christian Andersen Award, the National Medal of Arts and the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award, and designed for opera and the stage. He made picture books, not poetry.
