Here come the Dirty Bibs, the Spoon Lickers, the Easy Ticklers, and the Musical Soup Eaters ― all part of the grand procession for the marriage of the Rag Doll and the Broom Handle. This tale of wedding pomp and madcap mirth comes from Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Carl Sandburg and his classic book of American fairy tales, The Rootabaga Stories. Fantastical drawings by Harriet Pincus, a noted illustrator of children''s books and recipient of numerous awards — including the American Library Association and The New York Times — enhance this splendid hardcover edition.
