內(nèi)容概要

Maybelle was a cable car a San Francisco cable car. . . She rang
her gong and sang her song from early morn till late at night. . .
. By recounting the actual events in San Francisco's effort to keep
the city's cable cars running, this classic story illustrates how
the voice of the people can be heard in the true spirit of
democracy. Virginia Lee Burton's original art for Maybelle the
Cable Car was retrieved from the archives of the San Francisco
Public Library to re-create this edition with all the vibrant charm
of the original, which was published in 1952.

作者簡介

Virginia Lee Burton (1909-1968) was the talented author and
illustrator of some of the most enduring books ever written for
children. The winner of the 1942 Caldecott Medal for THE LITTLE
HOUSE, Burton's books include heroes and happy endings, lively
illustrations, and a dash of nostalgia. She lived with her two
sons, Aristides and Michael, and her husband George Demetrios, the
sculptor, in a section of Gloucester, Massachusetts, called Folly
Cove. Here she taught a class in design and from it emerged the
Folly Cove designers, a group of internationally known professional
artisans. She is the author of many classic children's picture
books, including MIKE MULLIGAN AND HIS STEAM SHOVEL and KATY AND
THE BIG SNOW.
