Synopsis
William Steig, the godfather of "New Yorker" cartoonists, began his career at the magazine in 1930. After achieving acclaim with his gang of street urchins, affectionately nicknamed the "Small Fry," he branched out, exploring through his drawings the psychological undercurrents in relationships between parent and child, husband and wife, self and society. In such groundbreaking collections as "About People" (1939), "Persistent Faces" (1945), and "The Agony in the Kindergarten" (1950), Steig laid bare the raw insecurities of childhood. In the process, he introduced symbolic art to mainstream audiences and permanently elevated the place of the cartoon in American culture. Beginning in the 1960s, Steig demonstrated his understanding and awe of children in numerous award-winning picture books, including such classics as "Sylvester and the Magic Pebble" (1970 Caldecott Medal), "Dominic" (1972), "Gorky Rises" (1980), "Doctor De Soto" (1982 Newberry Award), and "Shrek " (1990)--now a major motion picture. His thirteenth book for children, "Pete's a Pizza, " was published in 1998., William Steig, the godfather of New Yorker cartoonists, began his career at the magazine in 1930.

- a***p (8)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseI received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.All Quiet on the Western Front by Erich Maria Remarque HC 1930 (#396258036329)
