Celebrate 75 Years of Madeline!

Here, collected in one handsome volume, are all the adventures of Madeline, a fearless little girl full of mischief and vitality who is one of the world’s most popular and beloved fictional characters. Madeline, which was first published in 1939, and its five sequels have charmed generations of readers, and become true classics. In each of these books, Bemelmans’ humorous verse, his immortal characters—Miss Clavel, Pepito, the magician, the others—and his wonderful, whimsical drawings of Paris combine to create a memorable reading experience for people of all ages.

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Anna Quindlen has written an introduction to the collection, which also includes “The Isle of God,” an essay by Bemelmans on how he invented Madeline, and never-before-published working sketches of Madeline, as well as photos of the Bemelmans family.

作者简介

Ludwig Bemelmans was a painter, illustrator, and writer of more than three dozen books for both adults and children. Born in 1898 in a part of Tirol now known as Merano, Italy, he came to the United States in 1914 and, after spending Christmas Eve on Ellis Island, set up residence in New York City. Before finding his voice as a writer, he worked in a hotel and ran his own restaurant. Later Bemelmans became a novelist and a nonfiction writer, as well as a frequent contributor to The New Yorker (for which he drew many covers), Town and Country, Holiday, and Vogue; and he also wrote a screenplay in Hollywood. He penned the first draft of Madeline on the backs of menus in Pete's Tavern. He is best known for his Madeline books, which rank among the most honored children's books ever. Madeline was named a Caldecott Honor Book; and the first of its five sequels, Madeline's Rescue, won the Caldecott Medal and was a New York Times Outstanding Book of the Year. A world traveler, Bemelmans was renowned as a true cosmopolite, an irreverent and droll chronicler of the incongruous, an elegant man-about-town, a merry observer of the improbable and the absurd. He died in 1962 after completing the sixth story about Madeline, Madeline's Christmas.

大赞，纪念Madeline75周年的精装本，A4大小，不是铜版纸。全集包含全部6个故事，趁满300减150活动买的，不到￥105买了6本故事书，非常划算，卓越的活动很好很强大！

I purchased this for my 8 year old daughter who is an indifferent reader in the hope that she would be interested in independent reading. It arrived in the mail at lunchtime and she had finished the entire book by dinner. She absolutely loved it. Most of the pages have one or two sentences on them so it is not intimidating for the reluctant reader. Also, as it includes six Madeline books, it is an excellent value. I highly recommend this book.

What is not to love about Madeline. My daughter adored the rhyming story of a gutsy little girl, and I hope my granddaughter will love her just as much.

I absolutely love the Madeline stories. I love the rhyme and maps where famous spots are. I gave this to my dear grand daughter and hope she loves Madeline as much as grandma.

As wonderful as I remembered. The illustrations have always been fascinating. I would recommend this treasury to anyone, especially if there a young girls in your life.

The book was flawless when it arrived in the mail. The whole collection with original illustrations was spot on! I was buying as a gift and the person I gave it to absolutely loved it because she read the books growing up. 5 stars, for sure, and recommended.
