The Story of Little Babaji Hardcover - 1996

by Bannerman, Helen

  • Used
  • Hardcover

As a gift for her two little girls, Helen Bannerman wrote and illustrated The Story of Little Black Sambo (1899), a story that clearly takes place in India, even though the names she gave her characters belie that setting. For this new edition, the little boy, his mother and his father have been given authentic Indian names: Little Babaji, Mamaji, and Papaji, and Caldecott Honor illustrator Fred Marcellino's lively and lavish illustrations are unmistakably Indian in every detail. Full color.
