Late in his career, James Marshall produced his own set of fairy tales: Goldilocks and the Three Bears (a Caldecott Honor Book), Red Riding Hood, and The Three Little Pigs. Humor abounds in both text and illustration. When the first little pig approaches a man selling straw, he says, ”I’ll buy your straw and build a house.” “That’s not a good idea,” says the man. A first edition in Fine condition in a like dust jacket and with the added bonus of a great signature and sketch by the author/illuistrator.
