MR. FIBBER

Based on Lea Goldberg's classic rhyming stories, this book introduces this charming character and his absurdist adventures to a new generation of young readers.

When Mr. Fibber accidently drops his coin in a jar of juice, he magically shrinks so he can dive down and retrieve it. On a walk one day, he stumbles upon a giant dog with a smokestack on its back, towing a train behind it - and hitches a ride. And just to make sure it stays sunny and warm during his vacation, he catches the sun in a net and packs it in his suitcase!

These playful adventures, designed for children three and up, are illustrated in a bouncy colored-pencil style and just bursting with imagination, and they'll enchant young readers.
