Noodle

The landmark collaboration of two of children's books most beloved talents, Ludwig Bemelmans and Munro Leaf, available again! The story of Noodle, brought to you by the creator of Ferdinand, Munro Leaf, and the creator of Madeline, Ludwig Bemelmans. What could be better than a dog story by these two? Worthy of any child's collection, and a fine learning moral to be found within. Noodle is a little dog who's very long from front to back and very short from top to bottom, which makes it hard for him to dig for bones. One day Noodle finds a wishbone, and the dog fairy arrives with a flip-flap of wings to grant him a wish: "What size and shape do you want to be?" Noodle asks all the animals at the zoo what he should wish for, only to discover he might just be perfect -- exactly the way he is. Originally published in 1937 by children's book greats Ludwig Bemelmans and Munro Leaf, NOODLE is a classic with a quiet wisdom that continues to hold true today.**
