Description
All Philipok wants is to go to school. Like his big brother Peter No, his mother says, he must stay home with Grandma. But little Philipok is determined. He slips out of the house, braving wintry winds and a fierce dog, to surprise Peter, the other children, and the teacher as well. In this retelling of Tolstoy's charming children's tale, Ann Beneduce's simple and lyrical prose, paired with Gennady Spirin's rich palette and finely-detailed illustrations, brings to light a classic that will be loved by a whole new generation of children.
