The Big Green Book
Autor Robert Graves Ilustrat de Maurice Sendaken Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 noi 2018 – vârsta până la 8 ani
A little boy named Jack discovers a big green book of magic in the attic and learns all sorts of spells—spells to change the look of things, spells to make him old and gray or disappear entirely! Jack makes the most of his new magic powers, and his poor old aunt and uncle are quite bewildered.
This enchanting tale by noted British author Robert Graves is masterfully illustrated by Maurice Sendak, seven-time Caldecott Honor recipient, National Book Award winner, and the Caldecott Medal-winning creator of Where the Wild Things Are.

Recenzii
"In 1962, just a year before Where the Wild Things Are, Sendak illustrated this glorious story of a boy who uses magic to trick his dull, 'not very nice' old uncle and aunt into seeing things his way. Written by the poet Robert Graves, its prose rolls ahead delightfully, while Sendak’s intricate pen-and-ink art seems to be working out the combination of enchantment and mischief he’d soon make his name on." — New York Times
Notă biografică
Robert Graves is best known for his novel I, Claudius, which was turned into a Masterpiece Theater blockbuster megahit in 1976. He was born in 1895 in London, England, and went from school to the First World War, where he became a captain in the Royal Welch Fusiliers and was seriously wounded at the Battle of the Somme. He published his autobiography, Goodbye to All That, in 1929, and it was soon established as a modern classic, followed by I, Claudius in 1934. He died in 1985 in Majorca, his home since 1929.
