The Four Donkeys.

Rating:
Summary: Underrated
Review: Another elegant bit of work from The Master Craftsman. Threemen on their way to market meet up with trivial disasters and end uphaving to trot back home, disappointed but wiser. The gentle little moral is a positive pleasure, the writing is superb, and the illustrations enhance the text without overshadowing it because the text stands on its own; it's not an excuse for visual creativity. Not for very little kids, but a great read-aloud book for kids with a fairly long attention span, and a great book for anyone older than that.
