Wow there is so much hidden in the layers of this story. We read it through recommendation of Sonlight P 3/4 in [b:The 20th Century Children's Book Treasury: Celebrated Picture Books and Stories to Read Aloud|238068|The 20th Century Children's Book Treasury Celebrated Picture Books and Stories to Read Aloud|Janet Schulman|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1411333628s/238068.jpg|230604] and I can tell that some pictures must have been left on in this condenced version but it still works well. Although I wouldn't mind an individual copy.
