What If?

What If?
Helen and Henry Tanous
Pictures by J.P. Miller 1951

A nice little showcase of some Disney artists from the 1950's.  J.P. Miller's work has shown up often in Little Golden Books including one of my favorites, "Doctor Squash".

Hiawatha

I love collecting different versions of stories and books that we already own. This story is "suggested" by Longfellow's famous poem and features sweet vintage illustrations.  Sometimes I get these books so cheap at the thrift store or flea market with the intent of cutting up the pages to use in collages or other arts and crafts.  But I liked this one too much and decided to keep it in one piece.
