The brevity of this book, and the straightforward narrative, best characterize it as children's literature, but there are nuances to the story, and to the wonderful drawings, that make it a pleasure for adults as well. I've gone through it alone in detail at least three times, and continue to find additional aspects of the art to appreciate. Whether it's a previously unseen figure on one of the busy pages, or discovering something new in the contemplative facial expression of a main character on one of the quieter pages, the illustrations in this book put it on a par with the best of children's literature. I enthusiastically recommend this wonderful book.
