Randolph Caldecott Medal 1948

I love everything about this classic, but I especially love the old book smell that my copy has. I know this has nothing to do with the book itself, but I think it's a testament to how a book that was published in 1947 can stand the test of time if it's written well enough. ( )

This is another very nostalgic book to me. I read this often as a child in school and out of school, the most nostalgic part is the cover of the book I will always remember the cover of this book. It is a French folk story about two hungry travelers arriving in a village looking for food and coming up with a unique solution when none of the villagers would feed them. ( )
