Honey Bear

Reissue of the 1923 classic about a bear and a baby.

"My mother used to read it to me at bedtime long before I knew one letter of the alphabet from another . . . "Honey Bear"'s main attraction was Dixie Willson's rollicking, rolling rhythm . . . the Willson beat made me think writing must be not only magical but fun . . . I resolved then and there, lying illiterate on a little pillow in a tiny bed, to be a writer. In homage to Dixie Willson, I've slipped a phrase or two from "Honey Bear" into every book I've written." TOM WOLFE, author of "The Right Stuff"
