Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Search in google:
Since this story's first appearance in 1820, generations of readers, young and old, have thrilled to the headless horseman galloping through the haunted woods of Sleepy Hollow. The rollicking tale of Ichabod Crane and his ill-fated courtship of Katrina Van Tassel has proven irresistible to illustrators. Now Michael Garland brings his trademark realism to this immortal classic with paintings that are as crisp and clear as a Halloween night in Sleepy Hollow.Publishers Weekly"Paintings by Grandma Moses's great-grandson make a striking match for the classic story," said PW. Ages 5-up. (Aug.) Copyright 1999 Cahners Business Information.
