MR Gumpy's Motor Car
John Burningham
Hardcover
(He Bei Jiao Yu Chu Ban She/Tsai Fong Books, May 1, 2011)
CHI edition of Mr Gumpy's Motor Car. This lovely book portrays a car ride gone awry. The car got stuck in the mud when it began to pour. But no one wants to get out to push. When Gumpy announced that they are stalled, the disgruntled sheep and calf and chick and goat and piggy had to get out to help. The book is black and white on one side and color on the opposite, making it an eye opener. Burningham has won many awards including the Kate Greenaway Medal twice. In CHI.
