This book features excerpts from the beloved books, letters exchanged between Cleary and the first illustrator of her book in 1955, stories behind the illustrations, essays that illuminate the series' narrative and artistic impact, and so much more! Get ready to learn more about the  adventures of this iconic heroine, brought to life by these five different artists: Louis Darling, Alan Tiegreen, Joanne Scribner, Tracy Dockray, and Jacqueline Rogers.(This book may contain a sharpie mark on the top or bottom edge and may show mild signs of shelfwear.)
