MP3 Audio CD. The Tale of Peter Mink HOW PETER WAS DIFFERENT There were two ways in which Peter Mink was different from any other person in Pleasant Valley, or on Blue Mountain, either. In the first place, he had no home; and in the second, he had a very long neck. The reason why Peter had no home was because he didn't want one. And the reason why he had such a long neck was because he couldn't help it. When he grew sleepy he would crawl into any snug place he happened to find--sometimes in a hollow stump, or in a pile of rocks, or a haystack. And often he even drove a muskrat out of his house, so he could sleep there. Most of the time Peter Mink went about in rags and tatters. Whenever he did have a new suit (which wasn't often) it never looked well for long. Naturally, sleeping in all sorts of places did not improve it. But what specially wore out his clothes was the way he was always squeezing through small holes and cracks. Wherever Peter saw a narrow place he never could resist trying to…

Description:
New York: Grosset & Dunlap, 1929. Hardcover. Very Good/very good. C. 1916, but list of Sleepy-Time Tales ends with The Tale of Nimble Deer (1922) and on the rear flap Cuffy Bear's Holidays (published 1929 we believe), so we're thinking 1929 for this especially with 1929 gift inscription on pastedown. Square 8vo, pictorial cloth in green color pictorial dust jacket. Book very good as is the jacket: light scuffing and discoloration, light soil and a few abrasions to rear panel. 112 pp, illustrated with duo-tone pictures.
