Clement Hurd

Goodnight to each of the objects in the great green room: goodnight chairs, goodnight comb, goodnight air.

Verses describe the holes that a mole, dog, worm, and rabbit dig, but none can compare with the work of a man and his steam shovel.

Until his father brings him some rubber boots, a young lion searches for ways to entertain himself on a rainy day.

A little rabbit who wants to run away tells his mother how he will escape, but she is always right behind him.

Published to commemorate its 75th anniversary, The World Is Round brings back into print the classic story created by Gertrude Stein and Clement Hurd. Written in her unique prose style, Gertrude Stein's The World Is Round chronicles the adventures of a young girl named Rose-a whimsical tale that delights in wordplay and sound while exploring the ideas of personal identity and individuality. This stunning volume replicates the original 1939 edition...
