New York: The Viking Press, 1956. Second Printing, May 1956. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Near Fine/Very Good. Illustrations by William Pene du Bois..
Yellow cloth with red titles and front illustration; 8.5 inches tall; 159 pages. The top edge is stained light red. The bindings are tight and square. Text clean, light even toning. Modest shelf handling wear. The dust Jacket has the price of $2.75 and has evenly age-toned. Hint of corner wear. There is a 'splash' stain under the 'U' of the title.. Mr. Plimpton's delightful fantasy, 'The Rabbit's Parasol,' unfurls like a vibrant carnival tent, brimming with an eclectic cast of characters. It is his first book for children and his first commercially published book.
Within its whimsical confines, a plot weaves and winds, akin to the antics of a skillful troupe of juggling clowns. And as for the enigmatic rabbit, the bearer of the parasol, whether he remains a mere creation of the mind or a palpable presence lingering behind the reader, his essence lingers long after the book is closed.
"The Rabbit's Parasol" is adorned with charming and imaginative illustrations by William Pène du Bois, adding an extra layer of enchantment to the tale, making it a delightful experience for readers of all ages.
