Books with title Imogen's Antlers

This fifteen-year-old treasure gets a well-deserved polishing in this reissue as an oversize picture book.

Her mother faints, her brother conducts investigatory research, the doctor examines and the principal frowns disapprovingly. But it is the cook and the irrepressible Imogene herself who find innovative and beneficial applications for her new headgear. Enchanting and whimsical in both narrative and watercolor illustration, David Small's story is a classic that invites child and adult readers alike to celebrate difference, diversity, and downright silliness!
