About this product

Product Information

From Maurice Sendak, the Caldecott Medal-winning genius who created Where the Wild Things Are, comes Nutshell Library, which will enchant readers with four classic titles. Containing pocket-size versions of perennial favorites Alligators All Around, Chicken Soup with Rice, One Was Johnny, and Pierre, this pint-size library is perfect for small hands. Learn the alphabet with silly alligators, drink chicken soup with rice every month, count visitors with a boy named Johnny, and survive a scare with a boy who doesn't care. Endless adventures await in these lyrical stories that children, and their grown-up readers, will love reading and sharing over and over again. A wonderful stocking stuffer or baby shower gift, Maurice Sendak's Nutshell Library will evoke powerful memories for many, and the rhymes and stories continue to speak to new generations of little ones. And if you prefer your Nutshell Library books on their own and not quite so tiny, each is also available in a board book edition.

    Buy it

    I bought this set over fifty years ago for my little brother and we both loved it.When my son was born I wish I could have found it for him.Now I have a tow month old grandson,so when I found it on line I had to get it for him so we can enjoy it together.

  • One of the best book sets for kids

    Maurice Sendak. I hope this set never goes out of print, and it's unlikely to. The books wear well. Kids love the rhythm and repetition in Chicken Soup With Rice and join in as it's read aloud. They love being the crabby Pierre who said, "I don't care," (and is eaten by a lion). They sneer the line. They like four little books all in one little slipcase. If I were to make a list of the best 10 or 20 books for young children this and Where the Wild Things Are by Sendak would be toward the top.

  • I do care!

    I had this little set as a child and remembere reading it at least a hundred times...of course as it happens when kids grow older, somebody cleans up and books n toys disappear ( to make room for new stuff of course). As an adult I could not remember the author but was told these books were then no longer available! Glad to see they still are and I was surprised at how many of the cute photos I remember exatcly. Great kids books, great learning too!

  • All kids should have a set of tiny books like these!

    I have numerous sets of these books! The best for kids by famous author Maurice Sendak.

  • Great set of books for learning. Love the travel size

    My 2 and 4 year old boys loved this set of books. I was reading them every day for a week because they kept asking me to. The Pierre book talks about a boy who gets eaten by a lion after saying "I don't care" one too many times. He is saved and he changes his tune. This was perfect for my 4 year old who often says "I don't care." The other books teach the alphabet, numbers and months in humorous ways and are just great. A must have book for all toddlers.
