Herriot James
The Best of James Herriot: Favourite Memories of a Country Vet
New York NY: St Martins Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1983. First Edition. Pictorial Boards. As James Herriot said: "The publication of this book gives me the chance to pick out my favorite chapters from past books - the ones my family and I have laughed at over the years and the ones my readers have said they most enjoyed. . . . They say we should not live in the past and I have no reason to do so because I am still a practicing veterinary surgeon still enjoying life. But to me the past is a sweet safe place to be and through the medium of this book I shall spend a little time there now and then. " Lavishly presented in a splendid large-format volume that includes over 100 full-color pages of breathtaking photos are the most unforgettable episodes from four of the most beloved books of our time. The jacket has somewhat worn corners and a 1" tear on the back. In a protective cover.; 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall . St Martins Press hardcover

Higgins James E.
BEYOND WORDS: MYSTICAL FANCY IN CHILDREN'S LITERATURE.
Teachers College Press New York 1971 second printing. 112 pp 7 3/16" H soft cover. "The art of creativity in children's literature is evaluated according to a different set of criteria and standards from that applied to adult literature - namely the writer's ability to show respect for the 'innate rights' of the child and to write with a sensitive feeling for the integrity of childhood. Like Coleridge James E. Higgins defines art in concepts 'beyond words' as the fusion of new identities through the extraordinary functions of the imaginat ion. Classically known fairy tales and books of mystical fancy appeal directly to the 'inner child' an aspect of childhood that grownups teachers and writers for children can get to know it they look through the child's looking glass wi t h o u t t h e adult's perception. In this discussion of children's literature ranging from the works of W.H. Hudson and George MacDonald through 'The Hobbit' of J.R.R. Tolkien and 'The Little Prince' of Antoine de Saint-Exupery Professor Higg in s co nt in u al ly e mphasizes the importance of things that are not seen as essential to the development of the child's spirit of security in today's educational society which often tends to relinquish the concentration on things of wonder and fa it h f or mor e rel eva nt everyday identities." Interior - one page with two upper corner creases otherwise clean and tight with no other ownership marks. Exterior - very light edge wear a few very small scuffs fading to spine color - lett erin g v ery leg ible mino r so ili ng. Very Good-.
