About This Item
USA: Silver Press, 1991. Assumed First Edition 2nd Printing. Hardcover. New/No Jacket. Deborah Winograd. CONDITION: NEW 1991 Silver Press hardcover (no DJ), 2nd printing. This is so tight and crisp, I find it difficult to believe that this is a 1991 book but this is the only date. Black bookplate from the Guadalupe Cultural Arts Center. That can be covered easily. Beautiful color illustrations by Deborah Winograd. CONTENT: This is a story of Dionysus' youth where when captured by evil pirates, he turns them into friendly dolphins destined forever to lead sailors into safe waters and home. Grades 5+, IMHO.
