A review by boureemusique
The Pelican Chorus: and Other Nonsense by Edward Lear, Fred Marcellino

4.0

It is no surprise to me why this illustrator won the Caldecott. The pictures are beautiful, amusing, and (to my husband) obscene. I can't help, though, but think that the three stories in here are celebrations or critiques of the class system and/or British colonialism. ...But that may be because I'm an English major in a personal renaissance. :-)
