You loved Nutshell Library as a miniature collection, and these large board books make it even easier for children to share with their grown-up readers. For over fifty years, children have cared about Pierre, Maurice Sendak's story about a little boy who doesn't care about anything. And they will continue to care about this classic cautionary tale in this durable board book format.
