About this product

Product Information

Nothing can stop John Henry-no boulder, no mountain, and definitely no steam drill. Newbery Honor winner Julius Lester writes with such power that this African-American folk hero becomes as awesome as a natural phenomenon. Jerry Pinkney received a Caldecott Honor for his exuberant, glowing watercolor paintings of the hero. The book, celebrating its tenth year in print, was also a Boston Globe-Horn Book Award winner, a Parents magazine Best Book, and an ALA Notable Book, among other honors.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • ART WORK is 5 stars! Story has sad ending; best 4 grade-school children not preschool.

    I recommend it mostly for the art work. The art work is 5 stars. The story is ok. Ending was interesting, but I have to say that for small children it might be too depressing of an ending. It wouldl probably work for older grade school children, but not preschool. I liked the song John Henry sand, and I know that a lot of people could relate to that song; especially the working man/woman.

  • Classic!

    This book is a classic. The story is floklore, but has hidden life ques. This is a fun to read and interesting book. The pictures are also great watercolor paintings. My husband remembered this book from his childhood and smiled when he took it out of the package. What memories!
