Abstract
-
en_US
A red cloth cover has the title and images of a donkey and a boy. As elsewhere in her Whitman books, Katherine Evans uses a crayon-like style, alternating black-and-white and colored spreads. Young Peter is the first to ride. The critic in town stands in the doorway of a hotel marked Hotel de l'Âne. Both Peter and Papa lean over to get the donkey onto their backs. The people refuse to buy a donkey so silly that he has to be carried. Peter and Papa walk home with the donkey and realize that, if you try to please everyone, you please no one. With these books purchased from Karen Thiessen, I now have five of Evans' books by Whitman--only to learn in their pages that the total of her fable books is now up to seven.
