signed first edition
1974 · New York
by Brown, Marcia
New York: Charles Scribner's Sons, 1974. Fine in very good envelope.. Rare suite of prints for Brown's luscious ABC picture book, from endpapers to "Your Zoo" — including an additional signed print of "Cat Dance." Brown, a graduate of the New York State College for Teachers (later SUNY Albany) worked as a high school teacher and children's librarian for several years while writing and illustrating; over the course of her career she garnered three Caldecott Medals and was a Caldecott finalist for six other books. Brown worked in several media and had a particular affinity for woodcuts.
