Caldecott Medal Winner

This deluxe edition of Sylvester and the Magic Pebble truly recaptures that magic for a whole new generation of readers--featuring retouched, vibrant illustrations and William Steig's moving Caldecott Medal acceptance speech.

One rainy day, Sylvester finds a magic pebble that can make wishes come true. But when a lion frightens him on his way home, Sylvester makes a wish that brings unexpected results. How Sylvester is eventually reunited with his loving family and restored to his own donkey self makes a story that is beautifully tender and perfectly joyful.
