The Story of Ferdinand by Munro Leaf
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Having deeply loved Ferdinand for well over thiry years now, I had not expected to discover anything except an old friend among its pages. Imagine my delight to discover that the cork tree is actually hung with clusters of corks – a suprise that tells me I have learned something about the world since the last time I read it. I still hope that one day, in a time of strife, I will find that I have an inner Ferdinand.
