first published between 1927 and 1958, the 26 classic books about
Freddy the Pig have delighted five generations of children and are
now going on to delight a sixth. They are available for the first
time as Overlook paperbacks.
Walter R. Brooks introduced Freddy the Pig in "Freddy Goes to
Florida." Freddy and his friends from Bean Farm migrate south for
the winter, with every mile of the way a terrific adventure
complete with bumbling robbers and a nasty bunch of alligators.
This is vintage Freddy and the whole ensemble cast at their
charming best.
A childhood classic. "Kurt Wiese and Marjorie Flack have created in
Ping a duckling of great individuality against a background (the
Yangtze River) that has both accuracy and charm".--The New York
Times. Full-color illustrations.
Since 1933, The Story About Ping has captivated generations of readers, but never before has it been available in a mass-market paperback format. No one can deny the appeal of the book's hero, Ping, the spirited little duck who lives on a boat on the Yangtze River. Ping's misadventures one night while exploring the world around his home form the basis of this timeless classic, which is brought to life by Kurt Wiese's warm and poignant illustrations.
Because of his fear of the sea, a young Chinese boy is sent to a distant mountain where he proves his bravery.
