Readers can compare multiple interpretations of iconic scenes (remember the infamous egg-cracking incident?), read letters between Darling and Cleary, and learn the stories behind the illustrations. Excerpts from the books and three essays illuminate the series’ narrative and artistic impact. Packed with rich content and nostalgia, this is a gorgeous homage to a classic of children’s literature.
