MANY MOONS.

New York: Harcourt Brace & Company, (1943.) dj. Hardcover first edition - James Thurber's first children's book - the story of a little princess who "fell ill of a surfeit of raspberry tarts" and who wanted her father, the King, to get her the moon so she will feel well again. Delightful illustrations. Winner of the 1944 Caldecott Medal. Large format unpaginated.
