Large Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Stead, Erin (illustrator). First Edition. First edition. Ink gift note on front endpaper, minor wear to corners. 2017 Large Hardcover. 151, [1] pp. A never-before-published, previously unfinished Mark Twain children's story is brought to life by Philip and Erin Stead, creators of the Caldecott Medal-winning A Sick Day for Amos McGee. In a hotel in Paris one evening in 1879, Mark Twain sat with his young daughters, who begged their father for a story. Twain began telling them the tale of Johnny, a poor boy in possession of some magical seeds. Later, Twain would jot down some rough notes about the story, but the tale was left unfinished . . . until now. Plucked from the Mark Twain archive at the University of California at Berkeley, Twain's notes now form the foundation of a fairy tale picked up over a century later. With only Twain's fragmentary script and a story that stops partway as his guide, author Philip Stead has written a tale that imagines what might have been if Twain had fully realized this work. Johnny, forlorn and alone except for his pet chicken, meets a kind woman who gives him seeds that change his fortune, allowing him to speak with animals and sending him on a quest to rescue a stolen prince. In the face of a bullying tyrant king, Johnny and his animal friends come to understand that generosity, empathy, and quiet courage are gifts more precious in this world than power and gold. Illuminated by Erin Stead's graceful, humorous, and achingly poignant artwork, this is a story that reaches through time and brings us a new book from America's most legendary writer, envisioned by two of today's most important names in children's literature.

Paperback. Condition: New. New; Certa vez, em uma noite no ano de 1879, em Paris, Mark Twain sentou-se com suas filhas, que o imploraram por uma história. Twain começou a contar a elas a história de Johnny, um menino pobre que tinha algumas sementes mágicas. Mais tarde, Twain faria algumas anotações preliminares sobre a história, mas ela ficou inacabada até agora. Retiradas do arquivo de Mark Twain na Universidade da Califórnia, em Berkeley, as anotações de Twain formam, agora, a base de um conto de fadas retomado mais de um século depois. Com o auxílio do fragmentado roteiro de Twain e uma história que funciona como seu guia, o autor Philip C. Stead escreveu um conto que possibilita imaginar o que poderia ter sido caso Twain tivesse realizado integralmente este trabalho.A narrativa de O esbulho do príncipe margarina, um best-seller do New York Times, conta a história de Johnny, que, desamparado e solitário ? exceto por sua galinha de estimação ?, encontra uma moça gentil que lhe dá sementes que mudam seu destino, tornando-o capaz de conversar com animais. A moça o envia em uma missão para resgatar um príncipe roubado, e, diante de um rei tirano e agressivo, Johnny e seus amigos animais passam a entender que generosidade, empatia e coragem são, neste mundo, presentes mais valiosos do que poder e ouro.Iluminada pelas graciosas, bem-humoradas e comoventes ilustrações de Erin Stead, O esbulho do príncipe margarina é uma história que atravessa o tempo e as gerações.; 160 pages.
